Buzzwinkle, entangled in holiday lights, stares into space in this November 2007 photo. He was recently euthanized.
ANCHORAGE–A well-known Anchorage moose has been euthanized. State wildlife biologist Rick Sinnott said he shot the aging bull moose known as Buzzwinkle after finding it in distress in a neighbourhood lot. The moose, who was at least 13 years old, was severely emaciated and unable to get up. Sinnott said it had badly worn teeth and an infected wound on his rump.
Buzzwinkle got its antlers tangled in a rope swing in a resident's yard in 2004 and was darted and tagged. The moose got its nickname in November when, after managing to tangle Christmas lights in its rack, it ate fermented crab apples. Adorned with the lights, it stared off into the distance, leading observers to conclude it was drunk.
