Two Drunken Moose Invade Home for Elderly Tue Nov 8, 8:38 AM ET

news.yahoo.com

They rarely have problems with drunks or rowdy animals, but residents of an elderly home in southern Sweden had to deal with both when a pair of intoxicated moose invaded the premises.

The moose — a cow and her calf — had become drunk over the weekend by eating fermented apples they found outside the home in Sibbhult, southern Sweden, said Anna Karlsson, who works there.

Police managed to scare them off once, but the large mammals returned to get more of the tempting fruits. This time the moose were drunk and aggressive, forcing police to send for a hunter with a dog to make them leave.

Police did not pursue the culprits, but made sure all apples were picked up from the area, local police chief Bengt Hallberg said. No one was hurt.

They are very majestic. Also smelly. I would have thoughts of that smell while drinking the beer.

Besides, what does moose have to do with beer? Who in Alaska would be drinking that much cold beer? I would drink more beer in the tropics, hot south, dessert, etc when I see beer. I think of hot coffee, cocoa, hot soup, when I see artic weather. I get the linking of cold climes to cold beer as far as making the drink seem cooler. But adding animal drool tot he name defeats that purpose.
