Bear 77 Report post Posted October 24, 2007 A friend from Alberta sent me this one. 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!" ._,_.___ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TerryK Report post Posted October 28, 2007 This picture has been floating around for a few years so I did some investigating. Looks like it did in fact happen in 2004 in Alaska as stated. The moose was alive when the workers found it but the local DNR decided it was too dangerous to try to free it so it was put down before it was lowered. Here's a page I found while searching. Lots of weird stuff: http://www.wyomingoutdoorsradio.com/gallery_of_odd.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
