    The moose was alive when they found him... but decided it was too dangerous to tranquilize him so they killed him.

    Yikes, poor moosie!

    They are not the gentle giants they appear to be. Moose are dangerous animals, especially when stressed, in rut or in pain. This guy was probably all three! I don't know why a tranqu. would have been too dangerous. I hope they donated his meat to a food bank or elder's group, so his death wasn't completely in vain. The First Nations elders around here always appreciate a donation of moose meat.

    omg...I've never seen anything like that in my life. Can you imagine coming across that? Poor moose though. It's a shame they killed it.
