East Algoma OPP are putting out a moose warning. There are more moose on highways this year because they`re trying to get away from numerous insect-biting bugs like mosquitoes. This year`s wet spring caused a big jump in the insect population. Some tips police suggest is follow the speed limit because it`s easier to stop a vehicle that`s not going too fast. Also be more careful at dawn and dusk because that`s when moose are most active but it`s also harder to see them on roadways.
