Two Drunken Moose Invade Home for Elderly




STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) - 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.

Police did not pursue the culprits, but made sure all apples were picked up from the area, local police chief Bengt Hallberg said. No one was hurt.

a pair of intoxicated moose

Shouldn't this say a pair of intoxicated moosen, or maybe a pair of intoxicated meese?

It is unbelievable that the grammar Gestapo that has been unleashed today didn't help you out here. Moose is plural for moose. Geese is plural for goose, whereas mongooses is plural for mongoose. (Isn't English great?!).

My "plural" question is, since lice is plural for louse and mice is plural for mouse, does it follow that spice is plural for spouse?

I'm guessing polygamy would get a little spicy, so sure, why not?

That's why they say variety is the spice of life.

This isn't really a hijacking, though, because my friend in the aforementioned Park City used to call in late to work due to moose-in-the-yard. ...

Anyone else feel like even the Drunken Moose could come up with a better suggestion?

So does that mean that it's always assumed that there will be multiple moose, and if there is only one, then it would be called a moosi?
