Pogo  Moose Incident - Fairbanks, Alaska   

"They were laying new power cables which  were strung on the ground for miles. The moose  are rutting right now and very agitated. He was  thrashing around and got his antlers stuck in  the cables. When the men (miles away) began  pulling the lines up with their big equipment,  the moose went up with them. They noticed excess  tension in the lines and went searching for the  problem. He was still alive when they lowered  him to the ground. He was a huge 60 inch bull and slightly  peeved!"
