A big silver moose. I repeat. A big silver moose. Located in Østerdalen, Norway.
Edit: I made it to Most Viral. Is that like the front page or what? The moose is now my favorite animal.
Edit 2 : I see the moose of glory on the FP. Send me anything. I have a very important deadline tomorrow and I am in dire need of procrastination.

Did you donate over 2000 hours to build it for your hometown?

Put a golden squirrel right next to it and wait for the Russians to invade

I drove past it last year :D
leroy666

Norway has $800 billion in the national heritage fund so a little moose bling is okay.

Private money from a private bank's arts fund. 2 million NOK.

This is at least flame proof. Looking at you Gävle! $250k every year burned to the ground. Less than 24 hours last year.
thatwoodguy
They used to regularly burn down this wooden guy in Prince George called "PG Man" Its now made of metal.
HappyPedestrian
I live 15min away from that moose :/
Naefindale

aneane
My condolences.

All that oil money and you guys get a moose? You could build a wall to keep out the Swedes!
HoldMyGlutenfreebeer
Oh yeah? How about a stainless steel American eagle with 2000 hours put into polishing 4000 individual feathers for Oroville California?
gothaminvader93
let's hope the Danish don't shoot this one aswell

Ever vigilant keeping an eye on the boarder.

Leave it for Norway to cheap out and not unleash upon the world a full golden moose.

Det var en gong en Elg som gikk ut i elven for å gjøre seg Rein, når han kom opp igjen var det Hjort
TehTacoman140
Does it have over 4000 stainless steel feathers though?
Zeph79
Alright Canada let's get our shit together and build a bigger moose eh
Nikolaj
It's probably not made of silver though.
aneane
A quick google search revealed : Made in China.
Nikolaj
So it's porcelain? Cool.

As soon as a saw the moose I thought of that line.

Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretti nasti...
OverlyComplicatedExplanations
I hear moose bites can be pretty nasty, how did it happen.
NoFudge
I got charged by a moose while walking in the woods at night. Was too dark to see it, but heard its breath. Getting stamped is what you fear
OverlyComplicatedExplanations
It's a monty python bit but from the start of holy grail, but I have heard moose can be very dangerous, never thought about how they attack.

I specifically scrolled through all the comments looking for a Supernatural gif.

I didn't see a single one so I felt I had to do it.

They also painted antlers and hung them in the forest so that drivers could see them when driving

It was to reduce accidents, and according to national news, it worked...

Can we please build our own and point it at this one?? Maybe use some of those unused funds from Harper's failed vanity projects.
Jumbobodybutter
First we Canucks must acknowledge the moose gap, and then I see a moose building race and those never end well.
TheAnswerWasAlwaysMoreLube
What are you talking about? They always end well!
thatwoodguy
We have a giant nickle.
fr1080f
We have whole bunch of moose sculptures. I was hoping this was a new one :(
justahumanonline
Canada's probably working on their own, twice-as-large, moose.
AttackEyebrows
We already have a pretty cool moose though

Not silver, but Mac the Moose is still a contender. Right beside the highway in Moose Jaw Sask.
QADA
Well fuck now I have to do another road Trip to Saskatchewan
greentinroof
Yeah, I don't mind this at all. Sure beats Edmonton's mound of silver balls.
cjthomps
Silver Balls! Every time my wife and I drive past we always sing Silver Balls to the tune of Silver Bells. Helps a little bit.
greentinroof
I typically just get mad. Luckily I can just about cut the Whitemud out of any drive due to the Henday being completed. Adios silver balls.
