Greetings Monica!
Moose would be the biggest, near Moose River in Old Forge, NY.
Nice employment updates! May good word come soon, msbelle.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Not your average bear.
Not your average pic-i-nic basket.
It might be worth noting that successful axe murderers are rarely accused.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think the largest animal I've seen minding its own business not in a zoo or game park or anything is a wildebeest. I'm assuming they are bigger than the intermittently domesticated cows that used to be popular in Kingston in the 70s.
We heard something nosing around our (poorly cleaned) campsite in the Anti Atlas mountains of Morocco. No word on species or size. We basically just huddled and swore and stared dubiously at the entrance to the tent.
Monica? Monica? Oh! Monica. Hi Monica!

Coding and Sleeping
I may have posted this before but I don't remember. It's a massive pun run of dog puns by Andy Zaltzman with John Oliver as the victim.
Don't follow the link if puns make you bleed from the ears. If not, then it's worth a listen.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
All the deer I've seen wandering around the DC suburbs have been medium sized does. Not very impressive.
Probably the biggest wild animals I've ever seen were water buffalo in India, but they were way off in the distance.

I'm pretty sure my largest animal in the wild was the bear that came into our campsite in Yosemite. Yogi was HUGE (I was also about 10). I still have the sleeping bag case that he ripped up looking for food (mom repaired it and the sleeping bag still fits in it).

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I have seen a mama grizzly bear and her cub from about 100 yards away in Denali, but I (well, my mom, but I was right behind her) have whacked a moose on the butt with our front door. I would rather face down a mama grizzly than an angry moose, I'll tell you.

I am really happy that the UFC takes a stance on its members being transphobic: [link]
However, in the category of not taking a stance: [link] think it's dodgy that her doctors commented, but I suppose she could have given permission.

I've seen moose in the wild. And whales.
Biggest urban animal was a deer. Though the rats here can be pretty impressive.

Supposedly there are bison in Golden Gate park. I really want to see them this summer - the only bison I've seen before are the ones ground into hamburger on my plate.
