A homeowner in southern Sweden got a shock when he found a drunken elk stuck in
his neighbour's apple tree.
The moose was apparently on the hunt for fermenting apples when she lost her
balance and became trapped in the tree.
Per Johansson, from Saro near Gothenburg, found the elk making a roaring noise
in the garden next door.
He called the emergency services, who helped him free the boozed-up beast by
sawing off branches. She spent the night recovering in the garden.
The next day she took herself off into the woods with her hangover.
Drunken elk are not an uncommon sight in Sweden during autumn, when there are
plenty of apples about.
Other residents of Saro had seen the elk on the loose in the preceding days.
Mr Johansson said the elk appeared to be sick, drunk, or "half-stupid", the
Associated Press reported.
