## About

*"There are two things in this world that Botch loves to do most. The first is dressing up like a moose and the second is running around the forest during hunting season. Neither are really good ideas. Together they are a disaster."*

If the moose jumps over all the rocks, Botch will hug the moose, If the moose jumps too early or too late or doesn’t jump at all, Botch will fall off the moose, and then get shot again.

#### Hare Brained

If fully revealed, Botch will take off his moose hat and put on bunny ears, and a bunny looks at him lovingly. Otherwise, Botch will still take off his moose hat and put on bunny ears, but get shot again.
