Moose

Moose are an animal featured in Far Cry 5 and Far Cry New Dawn.
The hunting magazine that will mark all Moose spots on your map can be found in Seeley's Cabin.
True Fact: "Moose are incredibly near-sighted, but are too cheap to pay for laser eye surgery."
The "True Fact" note can be found at the hunting blind on the ridge north of Taft Lookout Tower.
==Location==
Moose can be found in Whitetail Mountains and Henbane River. You can find a chosen with or without a judge at the corpse of a moose. The corpse is not lootable.
== Behaviour ==
Moose can be found in small groups, often grazing or scratching their antlers across the ground. Being neutral herbivores, moose will only attack if provoked or approached. Upon getting too close to a moose, it will paw at the ground and snort. If the player doesn't back away, the moose will attack, knocking down the player with powerful charges or kicking with its hind feet, and throwing any vehicle in its path. Moose can get into standoffs with predators, but the only ones capable of bringing one down are bears and cougars.
- Both bear and moose will try to scare eachother away. If this doesn't work, the moose will charge into the bear, but after a quick struggle, the bear will throw the moose to the ground and kill it with a bite to the throat.
- Both cougar and moose will try to scare eachother away. If this fails, the moose will charge but the cougar will quickly dodge and leap at the moose's neck before forcing it to the ground and tearing out it's throat. If however the cougar isn't quick enough to dodge the moose's first charge, it'll be flung into the air before landing on its feet, only for the large herbivore to turn around and hit the cougar again, killing it.
== Guide ==
Moose are one of the strongest animals in the game, just behind bison in terms of durability. A long range rifle is best suited for a safer hunt, although it will take multiple shots and the moose will flee if far enough away, making it a necessity to mark the animal so you don't lose it. If you shoot the moose at a close distance, it will immediately turn aggressive and attack. A few shotgun rounds to the head will bring down the moose, however, depending on the shotgun, it might not be enough to stop the moose before it reaches you. Explosives and fire will ruin the hide, and arrows will grant double the skin. Avoid hiding behind vehicles because moose will easily launch them towards you.
