Did you ever hear a moose make a sound that sounds like somebody fired a gun? I've heard gun shots in the woods out of hunting season before, the latest being in early August while trout fishing, and an old timer tells me that moose sometimes point their snout to the ground and make a "bang" sound with their lips that sounds just like a .22, and even leaves a ring clearing in the dirt if they do it on a dirt road.
Has anyone else ever heard tell of this? I've heard tell of this on three different occaisions over the years by three different people. If you have, can you tell me WHY they do this?
