    On the news I saw that the moose was looked at by wild life svcs, patched up a bit, then they actually went out and found the mother moose along with the sibling of the injured moose and the family was rejoined! What a nice ending!

    That’s a rarity for WS. I’d like to know how often they actually make an attempt to locate the rest of a familial group in other cases.

    Yes a rarity, but in this case the moose family had been around the area for a while so they sorta knew where to look, folks had been watching them for over a week.

‎"At some point we must draw a line across the ground of our home and our being, drive a spear into the land and say to the bulldozers, earthmovers, government and corporations, “thus far and no further.” If we do not, we shall later feel, instead of pride, the regret of Thoreau, that good but overly-bookish man, who wrote, near the end of his life, “If I repent of anything it is likely to be my good behaviour."
