There has been so much snow here in Anchorage that the Moose are in town looking for bushes and trees. A moose walked right into Providence Medical Center on Sunday. She set off the motion detectors and the doors opened. She got past 2 sets of doors and was stuck in the Foyer since the last set of doors needed to be pushed.
After a few days of wandering around the parking garage, she was on the third floor so they spent the next 8 hours parking cars close to her to “herd” her back out.
I was just glad that the light snow the last few days covered some of the piles of moose crap all over the place.
What? Are you a “F*****g” parrot and that’s *all* they taught you to say? anti-stevie want a cracker? And teach your handlers that “F*****g” has 5 asterisks instead of 6. Not sure what you would spell with that Polly.
Here in Alaska we would say 2 moose, but we do say Meeses in fun up here once in a while. (Right now we just as a LOT of Moose, ha!)
The word “moose” came to us from Algonquian Indians. Consequently its plural, instead of being “mooses” or “meese”, is the same as the singular. That is true of most Indian names whether of a tribe, such as the Winnebago and Potawatomi, or of an object such as papoose. It is also true of many wildlife names not of Indian origin — for example: deer, mink and grouse.
I had to chase one away from the front door at work last night, this is pretty common. They are as big as a car but dead quiet and amazingly easy to walk around a corner and run right into one.
As an Alaskan I have developed an unsafe lack of fear with moose, even though I have seen one stomp a man to death.
I like how this sign is used so much, it’s got it’s own plastic sheet protector.
That’s pretty much the funniest thing I’ve seen in ages.

Shouldn’t it be “Meese” or are targeting just the one moose in town? That’s profiling ya know…
Moose is both singular and plural xD /facepalm
Yes Jordan, that is correct. Really screws the flow of the sarcasm if I substitute “Moose” in both places though, — don’t it?
stevie… all i have to say is you are a F******g retard

They need an animal proof sensor.
They’ll install one just as soon as someone invents it.
i saw a video on youtube is this the same place?
The youtube one is from Alaska Regional Hospital a few years ago. This sign is from the Anchorage Providence Hospital last weekend.
