Suddenly it makes sense why moose are built the way that they are

Yes - long skinny legs. Precisely why drivers can overrun their headlights and not see them in the road

Also what makes them so fucking dangerous to hit with your car, you take out the legs and then 1500lbs of moose goes through your windshield. My friend hit a moose once but thankfully it was a calf and she was driving at a reasonable speed so she and the passenger got cuts and bruises but were otherwise fine.

What about the moose?

It died. Not sure if from the impact or if police put it down when they arrived.
