"Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation…"
Connecticut State Environmental Conservation Police received a call about a moose stuck on a fence in Barkhamsted, Connecticut. It was an obvious case of misjudgment when jumping the fence. The moose was not impaled, but couldn't move forward or backward. He was apparently no stranger to bad decisions as he was already missing one antler. CSECP discussed possible solutions, then called the local fire department to cut the fence. The firefighters used their jaws of life to cut one end of the fence panel loose. They didn't need to cut the other end of the panel, because that's when the moose moved forward and the fence was pushed down. After the fence was down, the moose nonchalantly walked away.
The number of moose sightings in small Connecticut towns has increased lately because it's mating season, and moose are looking for love in all the wrong places. -via Fark
