A moose is also known as a european elk? I've never heard that one before.

My first thought was Bullwinkle too...

How did they get it mixed up that they had mistaken her husband for a moose? If there was evidence there, it should be pretty clear cut.... unless her husband IS a moose! RUN!!

A European Elk no less... never heard that one either.

How can a Moose be considered 'Murderous'?

Isnt that assigning some sort of malicious intent to an animal?

Moose are everywhere in Sweden, and everyone hunts them, so maybe this is just revenge of the Moose. They can be quite dangerous though... How tall would they stand if on their hind legs?

Apparently, Canadian moose are vacationing in New Zealand. Maybe that is where this murderous moose fled to? Hopefully they can tell by his accent he isn't Canadian....

How do you mistake a person killing someone when a moose really did it? Did the moose stab her with a knife or something? Seriously, if a moose kills you, it has to be pretty obvious it was a wild animal, NOT a human being.

I met a couple girls from Sweden that told me their moose are much smaller than the Canadian ones. Is this true? I've seen some ones in Canada that a small car could probably drive underneath.

One of my favourite quotes is from Mark Twain and goes: "Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to".

Anyway I, for one, welcome our new Moose overlords.
