Moose Hunting

（单词翻译:单击）

Two hunters went moose hunting every winter without success. Finally, they came up with a foolproof plan. They got a very authentic1 female moose costume and learned the mating call of a female moose. The plan was to hide in the costume, lure2 the bull, then come out of the costume and shoot it. They set themselves up on the edge of a clearing, donned their costume, and began to give the moose love call.

Before long, their call was answered as a bull came crashing out of the forest and into the clearing. When the bull was close enough, the
guy in front said, "Okay, let’s get out and get him."

After a moment that seemed like an eternity3, the guy in the back shouted, "The zipper4 is stuck! What are we going to do?"

The guy in the front said, "Well, I'm going to start nibbling5 grass, but you'd better brace6 yourself."
