When the kerfuffle with the drogbar happened, some of the young moose ran off!

Those foolish calves! They've made off with our ceremonial drums again, treating them as toys... as... common drums! Can you help me find them? They must be scattered to all corners of Thunder Totem by now, discarded as soon as the fun dries up.
