True life example: Waiting up for the ex to get home from second shift, I saw a special about a guy who studied the mating habits of male moose by beating the bushes with a pair of antlers & calling, as closely as possible imitating male moose rutting behavior, then filming/observing when they showed up to defend their territory. Not surprisingly, he was killed by one a few years afterwards
Calling for a Bull Moose in the midst of Rut is insane.
Sounds dangerous even if his call wasn't any good. When you weigh 1500 lbs and have pointy things on your head, you don't need to be very smart.
@GeorgeRocheleau apparently they're Never in a good mood,and get Really angry if they think another male is encroaching
@GeorgeRocheleau, @Surfpirate yes,we watched in horror...hubby was an avid hunter & loved studying wildlife of all kinds, we both just couldn't believe the foolishness!
I'm convinced that those who semi-seriously pursue the pseudo-scientific...from being kidnapped by aliens to Bigfoot, to flat-earthers....eat up the notoriety of their publishings and/or findings.
They have tuned in to the gullibility of the #religulous...and - like Q-anon, for example...play on their naivité.
If they have never found one, how would they know what the mating call is?
Trial and error I suppose, those that get wrong don't find Bigfoot and those unlucky enough to get it right wind up as a sex slave in a Sasquatch den.
@Surfpirate Just hope they don't call a sex starved brown bear.
