Yes, your correct. I've encountered moose hundreds of times. But never in this type of terrain. It's always been in the Boreal or Carolina forest, where there are lots of trees to hide behind and where one can see for great distance through the forest. No stumbling upon anything in the dense underbrush.

NL is a new place for both of us. There are suppose to be more moose on the rock than people. An article we were reading cautioned about driving and then the question was raised about moose in rut and what to do. And, well, I've never given it any thought, hence the question.

Actually, it's my hiking partner who raised the question. She is the more cautious of the two of us and to her credit, more often than not has a valid reason to be. It would be folly not to listen to one's hiking partner.
