KhunDon Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) That’s a live 400 Lbs Bull Elk 30ft up a power line in Montana. I bet he can see for miles from up there. 😉 Edited November 23, 2020 by KhunDon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photograph is real and the accompanying description in the first example cited above is fairly accurate, although the incident took place two years before this item originally began hitting our inbox in October 2006. On 5 October 2004, a moose became entangled in under-construction power lines on Pogo Mine Road leading to the Teck Pogo gold mine about 80 miles southeast of Fairbanks. Officials speculated that the moose caught its antlers in a sagging half-inch cable, then was hoisted 50 feet in the air when the cables were subsequently tightened with a hydraulic winch. The 1,200-pound bull moose was still alive when the wires were lowered to the ground, but Department of Fish and Game officials deemed the situation too dangerous to allow for tranquilizing the unfortunate animal before removing it from the wires and decided to kill it instead. [Department of Fish and Game technician Dave] Davenport talked to Karl Hanneman, manager of public and environmental affairs for Teck-Pogo, and made the decision to have City Electric workers shoot the moose, based on reports he got about the animal’s condition. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/high-wire-act/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
