* ''WesternAnimation/MollyOfDenali'': In "[[Recap/MollyOfDenaliS1E6CultureClashPartyMoose Party Moose]]," Layla attempts to scare the moose off the runway by buzzing it with a low pass. The moose doesn't even notice the enormous "bird" swooping down on it, and just continues to graze.

Likely due to the [[InherentlyFunnyWords inherently funny]] name and rather goofy appearance, moose are the only species of deer portrayed as stupid in fiction rather than [[{{Bambification}} graceful]] or [[TheMarvelousDeer marvelous]], including ''themselves'' under the older name "(Eurasian) elk" (not to be confused with ''Cervus canadensis'', the large deer species referred to as "elk" in North America). And no, there's absolutely no difference. [[CallARabbitASmeerp "Moose" is just the Abenaki name, which caught on in the East around the same time the Lewis and Clark expedition found the similar-looking Northwestern "elk"]]. They are also the largest extant species of deer which, paired with their enormous antlers, often translates into "big and clumsy". More negative portrayals of moose will have them be TheBrute with DumbMuscle tendencies, like AngryAngryHippos.

* In addition, unlike many other prey animals, moose don't avoid conflict. They are large and have no problem fighting off predators, meaning they aren't afraid of much of anything. This can cast them as TooDumbToLive when they're outmatched and seem to be acting in opposition to their own best interests. This is particularly apparent in the above-mentioned vehicular collisions. Deer will often startle and jump out of the way...moose will not. It's recommended by many municipal driving departments to aim for a moose's rear end if you are unable to avoid a collision, both to minimize the amount of moose through your windshield, and because the moose just might continue walking, and you'll avoid it completely.
