(Stockholm) 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.


It's kinda funny, but moose are very large, and these people were elderly. It's a good thing no one was hurt.

If Rosie Dimanno gets wind of this, prepare for another informed screed against Swedish socialism.
The moose are spoiled by the nanny state and figure they can get away with anything, presumably.
