Dumbass Hunters Blow Away a Pair of Moose in a Zoo
A Norwegian hunting party failed to notice a fence separating them from a pair of majestic moose until after they’d shot and killed their quarry. It was a zoo fence. These motherfuckers gunned down zoo animals. Dammit.
SFGate reports Norway’s Polar Park, in the northern town of Narvik, has...well, had five moose, living peacefully in a fenced-in but otherwise natural enclosure. And zoo animals, of course, aren’t especially bothered by humans. Hey, lookit, some humans! Wonder what they’re doin’ over there with those shiny sticks. Welp, no bother. Blammo.
The hunting party self-reported the incident, calling the zoo to let them know about the unfortunate accident. It seems their hunting dogs snuck into the moose exhibit so the hunters didn’t realize there was a fence at all.
“This is a regrettable mistake made in connection with lawful hunting on the outside of the park,” Troms County wildlife tribunal chairman Arne Nysted told The Local. “It was a fatal error, but everyone understands that it was not done at all on purpose.”
Everyone except the moose. Because they are dead. Killed in their own damn enclosure.
