Moose in the Basement
Ask Alaskan natives which creature might be the most nightmarish to find in their homes, and many would answer “moose.” These animals are enormous, dense, and aggressive when trapped. A 1-year-old bull moose fell through the window of the basement in an Alaskan home and was unable to find a way back out. Firefighters were called to retrieve the 500-pound animal. The only way to have a chance of getting it out was to heavily tranquilize it, so it didn’t move while they figured a way to remove it. The behemoth had to be put on a large tarp and carried by 6 men to get it back outside.
