4 Wheels 4 Girls

On June 15 we drove though Kootenay Canadian National Park. We drove along the forest and saw countless deer. Their fur was sort of stripey and looked like it was rubbed the wrong way. We thought that a plastic bag was some kind of critter.

We were driving and then Mommy said, look there’s a bear! We all turned our heads to see the bear. It was pitch black. You could see the light on it’s fur. After that we saw more and more deer. Everyone was so busy looking for critters.

I looked up and saw something up ahead in the middle of the road. Was it a dog or a horse, or a deer? Then I said, what is that up ahead? When Daddy looked up he said that it was a moose. When we got closer we saw that is was tall dark brown and had long fragile looking legs. Up ahead we saw a car. Did it see the moose? It was coming fast. Then it came to a halt. Good. The moose looked like it was licking the road. Then it looked up and trotted into the forest.

We kept on driving and me and Stella said at the same time, MOOSE! We watched the moose look at us and then trot away. We saw more and more deer. Then daddy said pretty loudly, MOOSE! We watched as the moose ran gracefully into the woods. We think it was a male moose but we didn’t know.

After that we left Kootenay Park. I hope I will see more moose.
