    Raises a good point. I've watched a meat eater series where they give out Moose calls from a high vantage point across miles of open country. They know they are extremely slow moving animals and a moose that hears that call wont come to the location the call was made until some 24 hours later. If your impatient and don't return to the same spot the very next day, chances are you'll never see the bull you called in.

    So Moose finding each other in dense Fiordland bush may be too difficult.
