Moose Rescued from Halloween Decorations

Moose are big and powerful wild animals. Every child in Canada grows up being told never to approach a moose, especially during the autumn rutting season. So what do you do when a moose approaches people for assistance? A moose wandered into a neighborhood in Fort St. John, British Columbia, with Halloween decorations tangled in his antlers. It was a length of black webbing with a skull and parts of a skeleton. The moose was drawing a crowd, but no one wanted to get near enough to grab the fabric away. One fellow used a piece of tubing to reach the moose while keeping his distance, but it wasn’t working.

Shaydon Soucy and his wife Sydney came by and saw what was going on. Soucy joined Andrew Raw behind a chain link fence, and the moose approached the men. With the fence offering some protection, Soucy was able to pull the fabric and bones off the moose’s antlers. But that’s not the best part. The moose, now freed, came closer to the fence to lick Soucy’s hand! Soucy petted the moose, and later said,

It’s definitely the most Canadian thing I’ve done. 

We believe it, because the incident was caught on video, which you can see at CBC. -via Metafilter
