Moose breaks into Alaska home, eats plants



This is Jesse Barb's dog regular morning. I let the dog outside and I never shut the door all the way so that he can come back in himself and, and Jesse did come back in, but he wasn't alone. I think I stared at it for three or four seconds before it really dawned on me. Yes, he's in the house, Jesse. He had brought *** friend. The husband thought he was dreaming *** really, really big friend. He came walking into the living room. I stood up, took about two steps and realized there was *** huge moose in my house that had just followed Jesse in. Let me repeat that in case you missed it. *** moose in my house. So I'm hollering. There's *** moose in the house, *** normal reaction. The moose wanted the green stuff. He was starting to munch on all of the salad bar plants that I have in this back atrium room, fresh veggies in an otherwise snowy Alaska town that Moose didn't have *** care in the world. He was just enjoying his salad bar. So Barb called the police. They asked if she had *** chair to put in the hallway to keep the moose at bay. Well, yeah, I have four kitchen chairs, but none of them are six ft tall that he couldn't get over. So, I don't know what good that would do. So, we didn't put *** chair down. Yeah, that's like ***, that's like ***, throwing *** toothpick at *** giant or something. Right. Right. So, one officer reaching across the kitchen sink and so he just stuck the taser about *** foot away from the moose just for the noise, the munching moose, he wasn't tased or fazed by the noise. And then the other officer hollered and then he got *** little bit startled and *** good old yelling, the moose did have *** little trouble turning around that on his way out. He did manage to get about *** two ft bite of my plant to take, to go. And as to why the moose came and Barb says Jesse, he may have been *** bit lonely. Would you tell me when I called you, Jesse just needed, wanted *** friend. You wanted bullwinkle? Yeah, he, he wanted, he wanted to have AAA sleepover and dinner with his friend bullwinkle. So after about 25 minutes bullwinkle made it out, but the salad bar was calling his name. Oh, Lord, he's coming back. He knows I know The door's shut, but I hope you don't kick it open. It's about two ft from me right now. Oh, the joys of living in Alaska. Did you have *** little talk with Jesse? Did you do? Yes, we did. We told him that he has to ask first before he invites company in. And that's no, go away. You cannot come in my door. The all good news.
