I also carry a hatchet among other things in the truck, but all of it is containerized in a rubbermaid tote and cargo-netted to the floor in the back.


A hatchet is a useful tool, but it would be foolhardy to carry one loose in a vehicle, lest it be thrown around and cause injury.
In this case, perhaps the hatchet was used by the vehicle ocupants, or their rescuers, and discarded or forgoten when the photos were taken.
If the moose was not killed outright, I hope someone had the decency to shoot it.

I am glad that we dont have moose here ! similar accidents have occured with domestic cattle however.
