We go to Maine every summer and every summer, I hope that I will see a moose. So far, no luck. Silly me, I should simply go to Saratoga to watch the early morning workouts. That's where this cow moose was spotted on Monday morning by employees who had arrived for work.
The moose was actually spotted wandering down town along Nelson Avenue. It meandered over to Frank Sullivan Place outside of the race track gates. City police requested that the track gates be open so that the moose could be safely corralled inside. The moose wandered around the track until workers from the Department of Environmental Conservation could arrive and tranquilize the moose.
All went well and the moose was returned to its natural environment, unharmed. Wonder if he wanted to work out, place a bet or just check out the turf course? According to Bloodhorse.com, this is the first time that anyone who works at the track ever remembers seeing a moose on the grounds.
