I'm wondering how a moose would go swinging around as one of those toys ecar? Mind you, I'm a little biased of course; Australians might prefer to see kangaroos and wombats, but bears and moose, deer, wolves, voles and all the gorgeous northern hemisphere beasties would be nice too ... .....

A moose toy, something along the lines of a pecking chicken toy?
Perhaps not five chickens, or indeed five moose (mooses? moosi? meece?) but only one, following the same principle as the above example - a paddle with a weight underneath, a string that attaches to the head; move the paddle and the weight causes the head to bob up and down...
In essence it'd be a nodding moose rather than a pecking chicken.
(That one's going to have to go into the sketchbook, now).
I like the idea.

Gorgeous, that's just gorgeous ecar xxx
1 moose = 2 meece
1 blouse = 2 blice

At least we don't have to lock horns over those definitions.
Ha ha ha ha ha. Gee, I'm so funny sometimes.

The printer doesn't work.
This is hardly surprising as it hasn't been used for years.
It's time to find a pencil and some tracing paper.

This is the "basic" drawing of the moose, showing the head and body pieces.
There's a hitch - the head piece, because of the horns, is badly balanced; it's lop sided.
I don't think I can extend the neck into the body far enough to counter the weight of the head.
The head will fall forward, down, but I don't know that I can get it to go back up again, not with just a counterweight on a string.
It's a good pattern, but I don't think I could make it work as a "pecking chicken" style toy.
Sorry to disappoint you. 😞
