Norwegian specialists in the field of environmental protection warn that there are drunk elks wandering around the woods of Norway in connection with the snowless weather.

However, this winter has had almost no snow in Norway, so elks simply eat tons of the fruit and enjoy its effects.

Both are in the deer family, Cervidae, which is generally defined as members of the order Artiodactyls (even-toed ungulates) that shed their antlers each year.
