Whatever you do, don't send your robot lawnmower after a moose

You might be angry that a moose has come into your yard to eat the apples from your apple tree, but scaring it away with a robotic lawn mower just isn’t going to work.

This is what was probably going through the moose’s head:

  • "Hey, I like apples. I’m going to eat these ones here."
  • "I love apples."
  • "These apples are delicious."
  • "What is this?"
  • "This annoys me."
  • "Well, whatever it is, I’m going to stomp on it."
  • "Okay, problem solved. Back to eating apples."
  • "Apples are good."

Don’t send your robotic lawn mower after the moose.
