Night Of The Living Dead Moose

A zombie moose is loose in Connecticut. Residents are warned to hide the women and children immediately. Ok, we made that last bit up. But how else do you explain this? A moose was seriously injured after being struck by a car. A police officer who found the injured animal shot it to put it out of it's misery. Later when police and state wildlife officials returned to retrieve the carcass, it was gone. (Cue creepy music).

GOSHEN, Conn. - A dead moose is missing. The 600-pound bull was shot to death by police Tuesday night after being found seriously injured by the side of Route 272, where it had apparently been hit by car.

But officers from the state Department of Environmental Protection could not find the carcass when they went to retrieve it Wednesday.

State wildlife biologist Howard Kilpatrick said someone may have taken the road kill to eat it. Quite a a few people who learned of the collision called the DEP's 24-hour emergency number to ask if they could take it for its meat.

They were told, "No."

"No one had permission to take it. Our goal was to look at its general condition and gain its biological data," Kilpatrick said. "The moose population is expanding but there is no hunting season to give us a chance to examine carcasses."

Oh sure, people were going to eat it. This isn't Cajun country, it's Connecticut. It's just a cover story made up by authorities to hide their terror. Just wait until the zombie moose sighting start coming in. And they will. I see a movie in this: Bullwinkle of the Dead. It will be huge! With antlers!
