"I think the moose just wants to get away from the traffic and everything else, much like most people do," Belmont Assistant Police Chief James MacIsaac told WBZ-TV.
Environmental police are working to track the moose down. Officials say it was last seen on the edge of the Audubon Sanctuary in Belmont at about 11 a.m.
