But why do moose lick cars? Experts say it's because they really like salt.

Salt is used on icy roads so they aren't so slippery. And sometimes that
salty road water is splashed onto cars… making the cars salty too!
為了讓馬路不滑,會在結冰的路上灑鹽,所以當路上的水飛濺起來,車身就變鹹鹹的!
So if you're ever in Canada, remember! It might be funny to let a moose lick
your car, but it's very dangerous for you and the moose! So make sure you
stay far away.
