Two Drunken Moose Invade Home of Elderly


Recommended Posts

STOCKHOLM, Sweden Nov 8, 2005 ? They rarely have problems with drunks or rowdy animals, but residents of an elderly home in southern Sweden had to deal with both when a pair of intoxicated moose invaded the premises.

The moose a cow and her calf had become drunk over the weekend by eating fermented apples they found outside the home in Sibbhult, southern Sweden, said Anna Karlsson, who works there.

Police managed to scare them off once, but the large mammals returned to get more of the tempting fruits. This time the moose were drunk and aggressive, forcing police to send for a hunter with a dog to make them leave.

Police did not pursue the culprits, but made sure all apples were picked up from the area, local police chief Bengt Hallberg said. No one was hurt.

Sweet.....

I was expecting the story to go, that someone had given them some vodka or something similar.... But fermented apples, I never though of.

Next they'll be having a pint of the 'ol Strongbow :p
