HAVE YOU SEEN MY MOOSE? Without the picture, this would be hard to believe.








Pogo Moose Incident - Fairbanks , Alaska

"They were laying new power cables which were strung on the ground for miles. The moose are rutting right now and very agitated. He was thrashing around and got his antlers stuck in the cables. When the men (miles away) began pulling the lines up with their big equipment, the moose went up with them. They noticed excess tension in the lines and went searching for the problem. He was still alive when they lowered him to the ground.. He was a huge 60 inch bull and slightly peeved!"

If I remember, they shot him because he suffered to much trauma in the two days he spent up their.
Doesn't make much sense

I hadn't heard that - just that they got him down (as per my post).

This was sent to me by a friend of mine in Alaska, and this is all he wrote.

You are so welcome Goodyguy...I wish I could find out what he used to block scent...that is a Cow Moose with a calf and it could have gotten so ugly!!! If she had detected him, she would have killed him...maybe she had her discretion turned to zero. :D
She could tell something wasn't right the way she turned and went into the woods.
