Watch for Moose!!!

New Hampshire drivers beware! Moose are on the move, and many of them are moving across roads.
Breeding seasons runs from mid-September through mid-October, so bulls and cows are moving around, looking for mates.
The Fish and Game Department said drivers all over the state should be on alert.

Wildlife biologist Kristine Rines said drivers should drive no faster than 55 mph, wear a seat belt, scan the sides of the road and slow down or stop if they see a moose.
She said moose collisions can happen at any time of day, but most happen at dusk and during the night.
