Northern Exposure - The hard way!

Check out this thread from my Caterpillar site: Moose on the Loose

;oog; ;oog; ;oog;

This is what we have to deal with too here in VT...plus Deer, Bear, Horses and those damn Bovines "running wild" across our highways. :D :D :D
A day does not go by here where animal meets metal...FUN!

I just about had to hit a moose to get him to move out of the way this morning. We have tons of moose here and that kind of thing happens all the time. The moose in the wire was crazy, I will try and find it.

EDIT: Here it is....

AlaskaVX,
OK...I'll Bite....
HOW DID THE MOOSE GET UP THERE???? Or Should I Ask???

They were putting up the wires up and the moose was playing with the wire (most likely it was moving in front of him and he got pissed and started hitting it with it's antlers). I'm not sure if they use a come along or a winch to pull the wire tight, but the antlers got caught and he went up with the wire. They didn't notice it since they were a ways up the wire but when they came down they saw a struggling moose hanging in the sky. ;eekg; :laughp:

That moose must have been like OH CRAP what did I get myself into.

:jump: Too flippin funny...my kids got a kick out of that one.
