Did they have to hurt the Moose's feelings first?

Well, they could be tears of joy, "My moth friends! You're back!"

Or the moths just tell really good jokes to him first 😃

My god.

If there is a team that is the moths and they are playing the moose... And they don't use this as friendly rivalry jabbing...

"Hey, Moose team! Did you see in Scientific American that there was a photo of a moth drinking the tears of a moose! Think about it, because that's what we're...oh, they're gone."

And they drink tears without using an unfunny mug.
