Their legs are so tall the the vehicle hits the legs near where they meet the body of the Moose and less than a second later you have 1,600 lbs of Moose coming through the windscreen.It's extremely unwise to drive at night anywhere where Moose and plentiful. A friend of mine met their fate in one of these moose hits 🙁

Even though they are lighter than a moose they travel in mobs of a dozen or so, hard to miss them all.The surprising one to hit is the wombat. Low to the ground but weighs up to 40 kg. Like hitting a rock it ruins a cars drive train. You’re most likely to lose control and end up in a ditch or tree or on your roof.In the outback it’s no driving between dusk and dawn unless you a road train with a ruddy big bull bar.
