this week a moose decided to mate with a bright red ford truck

it made the front page of the newspaper-portsmout nh

a wildife specialist said it was not normal behavior and he suspected the moose had a neurological disorder called brainworm-that is getting more common around here.

a friend told me about a moose that got mad cuz someone beeped at it to get out of the road and it put it's front feet on top of the car and crashed it it in.

then the paper in northern nh said moose had so many ticks on them they were anemic.

i really think they have lyme.

why do they call it brainworm-why not just say lyme???

Ticks can transmit worms as well; in fact, they were the first
notable organisms Burgdorfer came upon during his research in Old Lyme.

I wonder if that moose could have mad cow on top of Lyme on top of worms?

I did hear on public radio that some people believe that many of the deer in the USA have mad cow disease.

I am glad I declined the stewed moose at a birth day party recently. My friend had brought the moose back from Alaska. It did not look very appealing anyway.
