Moose + Car Photo

Having driven through Moose Pass twice in our trip to Alaska and, in addition, having seen many, many yellow highway signs warning drivers to watch out for moose, I was impressed by this photo included in the current newsletter of Cornell Publications (not to be confused with the university or college by that name, but a catalog reprinting business owned by Rob and Abby Mouat: http://www.cornellpubs.com/.  They provide a wonderful service at a very reasonable cost). 

A moose has such long legs that when it's hit by a car, the body comes through the windshield, typically killing the driver.  In this case, the driver was apparently born under a lucky star.

The lady driving the car apparently walked away with minor injuries!
