Unexpected moose makes waves at Maine beach

(NECN: York, Maine) – It was a perfect day for a dip Friday at Long Sands Beach in York, Maine – and that was true for both man… and moose.

A female moose surprised surfers and sunbathers Friday morning by swimming through the waves, startling beachgoers when it rose up out of the water.

The moose then jogged down the beach and headed back inland – it was last seen headed toward Shore Rd. in York. Moose are not an uncommon sight, even in Southern Maine – but it is rare to see one at one of southern Maine’s more popular beaches.

    Yes, Corinna, they are quite characters. They are such good swimmers that every now and then they follow a river until the sea. I had always heard stories, but never ever seen a photo! This must have been quite moment for that surfer ;-DDD
