A couple of days ago there was a female with her calf that was very interested (and was very jumpy) in anything that moved within sight. I'm glad I didn't run into her that close. There was another time that I was walking along and spotted a moose a little bit away, it stopped eating and glared in my direction. I don't like getting anywhere near those guys that stop eating.

Soooo, just based on my own experience, watch where you are going, try to keep some sort of tree/obstacle between you and the moose, and just keep your eyes open to avoid walking into one. If you happen to run into one close up, back a distance away, see if it cares about you, then try to get a picture. I'm not terribly worried of a moose charging at me randomly, there is probably a better chance of a pack of wolves doing that (which is funny to think about, but in reality that's probably true here )

On a side note, you don't even have to leave the airport to spot a moose. If your goal is to take a good picture, you should have plenty of opportunities. If you can't get a good one with one moose, there will be other chances.
