Mireille Vienneau got quite a shock this week when she found a moose calf had gone for a swim in her backyard pool.
Vienneau lives in Le Goulet, a small community in northeastern New Brunswick, near Shippagan.
Speaking to Radio-Canada, she said the moose fell into her in-ground pool on Tuesday afternoon and tried to swim its way out, while its mother watched from a distance.
“When my husband arrived from work, we tried to get the calf out, but he was in the deeper part of the pool,” said Vienneau.
“He was angry, he was kicking the water.”
