Moose gas

By Michael J.W. Stickings

I'm really not sure what to make of this article, nor of the scientific research reported in it, but, well, here you go:

Norway is concerned that its national animal, the moose, is harming the climate by emitting an estimated 2,100 kilos of carbon dioxide a year through its belching and farting.

Norwegian newspapers, citing research from Norway's technical university, said a motorist would have to drive 13,000 kilometers in a car to emit as much CO2 as a moose does in a year.

Talk about scapemoosing.
