The mama moose walked to the side of the road carefully looking both ways. Her ears twitched back and forth as she listened for the possibility of an encroaching vehicle. Deeming it safe, she went back into the bush and emerged one again with two toddlers behind her. Reaching the road side again, she ran quickly across the road giving the young ones the signal to hurry across. Once there she escorted them somewhere into the bush and reappeared momentarily to have a little lunch at the lush green grass along the ditch line. 
We share this wonderful world with many kinds of the Creators creatures. We get caught up in listening to the news of the day and concern ourselves with the plight of other human beings and seldom  stop to ponder the lives of our co inhabitants of earth and what they face each and every day.  We tailor the world for our convenience- spray for insects, uproot ecological habitats for our own convenience to build roads, houses and communities and we mostly ignore the millions who share this space with us.

Mama moose is an intelligent being, capable of forethought and planning and communication. She arranges for the safety of her offspring much as a human mama would, provides for them, rears them with discipline so they respond to her when she calls, and keeps them safe from harm.  Mama moose lives her life without infringing on ours, doing the best she can with what we leave for her in our manic obsession to take over the earth. Have you considered your own footstep on the earth? Can you  live so lightly that no one will know you have been there?
