The Luckiest Moose in Town

2008_08_29luckycharmmoose.jpg

While most of the moose that embellished city streets during the "Moose in the City" public art display in 2000 have vanished from view, a few hardy specimens continue to graze among us. A survivor on Dundas Street in Chinatown has been rewarded for its perseverance by having the complex next to it named in its honour. Time will tell if the moose's luck will rub off on the grocery store that also bears its name or the other tenants.

Did anyone ever figure out who was stealing the antlers off the moose?

They never had antlers, those were cows.

There are two, I think, on a balcony of a house in the College and Augusta area.

Female moose don't have antlers.
