Crazy brainworm moose charges & attacks man in Westford, Vermont. The man woke up to find a huge bull moose about to jump on his car and started yelling at the wild animal.
In the north east corner of the United States, a man has an interesting enconter outside of his home in Westford Vermont. Brett Olson woke up to find a huge bull moose about to climb on top of his car. Without hesitation, Brett ran outside in his boxer shorts and started yelling at the moose, "Do Not Jump On My Car". The big moose removed his feet from the hood and started walking around in circles.
Brett then returned with his video camera to capture the moose on film and that's when the 1,000 pound animal charged after him.
Mr Olson dropped his camera and took refuge inside his home while his roommate was on guard with a riffle as the moose seemed to circle the house and sparactically charged the door and window areas.
The local game warden arrived about an hour later and noticed the very odd behavior by the moose. The moose appeared to off balance and walked around in very tight circles which are direct symtoms of brain worm.
The warden shot and killed the moose and the beautiful creature's suffering was ended.
Brainworm is a small parasite that affects the brains of many hoofed animals. They are most commonly found in white tailed deer that are immune to the worm's effects which make them a sustainable host. This worm been labled as the moose disease because they are easily infected and often share the same territory as these deer.
But don't worry...the worm poses no direct threat to humans and the meat of infected animals is safe for people to eat.
