Let's ponder a little bit more over the moose. Listen to this description:
It's big (ca 200-550 kg, or ca 400-1100 pounds), it has an ugly head/face which mostly reminds of a camel, it's moving in a silly, sort of bouncing (can't come up with a better word) way, and the male creatures got horns.
What does it sounds like, a common animal in the forests in the whole northern parts of this world, or A Demon From Hell?
Nothing I'd like to hug, anyway.
