TAYLOR COUNTY, Wis. — Those who live in the northern Wisconsin are used to seeing wildlife, e.g., deer, coyotes, and bears. This week, however, was a little different. On Monday, Sept. 17 residents were surprised to see a moose trotting around!

The large animal was spotted in the Village of Lublin — about 50 miles northeast of Eau Claire.

A resident snapped a photo of the moose by a fence in a field off Shiner Drive

Moose also are dangerous if your car hits them. If you hit a deer, the front of the car hits the body of the deer, and it ruin your radiator. If you hit a moose, however, the body is highter than the hood of the car, so you have 1000 plus pounds of moose body going through your windshield.

"Northern MI has moose too."

Saw one on the roadside of the Seney strip years ago. Big critter!

Rare but not unheard of. They normally have enough sense to stay out of town.

Too many brain worms here. Maybe this fella has some and doesn't quite realize what hes doing.

Ive been hoping that they find a way to mitigate the problem. If theyre going to spend money bringing back various antlered beasts I want caribou back but I guess the worms are still too much of a hazard to even bother to try that as they are very susceptible too.

Was there a little squirrel in a pilots cap and goggles with him too?

Many years ago my oldest brother attended a small college outside of Charlotte, NC. I visited him one weekend on a red eye flight. Driving back to the college along a dark country road we came on an accident scene, local sheriffs were handling it. Apparently a horse got loose from somewhere and got plowed into by a semi truck. God, what a mess that was!
