Officials in Alaska have warned campers, hikers and hunters to watch out for moose acting strangely after one animal was diagnosed with rabies – something that has never happened before in the state.
In a statement, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG) explained that the moose had been seen behaving aggressively towards humans, which is unusual for these typically docile and curious animals. "The moose was unbalanced, stumbling, drooling profusely, and had bare patches of skin," said ADF&G.
