Our most famous resident needs some emergency surgery after a large chunk of Mac the Moose fell off to start the month.

 

When your pet gets sick you normally call the vet, but who do you call when a 35 foot tall Moose gets injured?

We're about to find out as Tourism Moose Jaw is exploring its options after a large chunk of Mac the Moose's jaw fell off to start the month.

Executive Director Candis Kirkpatrick is trying to find a solution and the cash to pay for it. "We need to have a structural engineer look at Mac and give us an assessment on whether or not we need to go further or whether we can just repair the hole that we have."

Mac is turning 23 years old next month and old age is the suspected cause of the damage. City Council has approved a thousand dollars for an engineer to give Mac a physical.
