Moose And Her Calves Decide To Spend A Day In This Family's Backyard

Roland Rydstrom from Anchorage, Alaska, just had a few uninvited guests pop over to his place; last week, a mama moose and her two calves came over to his backyard. If that wasn’t enough, the moose liked Rydstrom’s grass so much, they decided to spend the day there.

"As the moose family left and returned to the backyard, they'd nibble on plants, or in the case of the calves — the patio furniture and decorations in our's and our neighbors' backyard — just like a baby, putting everything in their mouth," Rydstrom added. "In fact, our neighbor started turning her decorative patio lights off and on to try to scare the baby who kept trying to eat a light bulb because she was afraid the glass would break in its mouth. The mama loves eating our yellow begonias and the neighbor's orange begonias; she also loves the leaves on the trees, the astilbe, bleeding hearts (they've bloomed and I'm lucky she didn't eat them that day), and the orange blossom bush's leaves."
