A grandson's lot in a central B. C. town has a small knoll in back. A moose and calf have taken it over as a bedding site every night.

They have a large dog that is supposed to keep animals away, but it has accepted the moose. This is the first year in the house so no fence or other physical deterrent. The only plants they have put in are rhubarb so they have decided to live with the moose- which chases other moose and deer away so the bargain, although uneasy, isn't too bad.

On the other hand, a daughter in southern B. C. likes flowers and shrubs, so she will fence to keep deer out. They eat everything that is above grass level. The lot is large so she will fence only near the house.
