It was at least the second time in the past month that a moose wandered into a building in Southcentral Alaska.
Black banged on the wall and yelled. The moose ignored him.After a few minutes, the moose found the Happy Meal box, Black said.But as employees watched it wander away, it was clear the Happy Meal was still stuck on its snout, nose poking through the cardboard, Black said.These kinds of close encounters with wildlife can be worrisome, said Nick Fowler, a wildlife biologist with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.
“I do not know if a Happy Meal is meant for a moose or not. However, I can confidently say that it’s not in its natural diet,” Fowler said. While the moose at the theater and at Providence both didn’t seem aggressive, Fowler said it’s not always easy to recognize the sign of an aggressive moose. And the fact that a moose is young doesn’t guarantee it won’t be aggressive, he said.
