Moose Causes A Stir At Metro Area Mall
BROOMFIELD, Colo. (CBS4) - A moose caused quite a stir a mall in Broomfield Monday morning.
The moose wandered into the Flatirons Crossing mall area and settled down. Roads into the parking lot had to be closed before the moose was tranquilized.
He's still on mall property, looks like he found another spot 2 bed down. Situation back in control. Phew. #MooseOnTheLoose @CBSDenver pic.twitter.com/mgAdo5kbu2

Wildlife officials said the moose will be moved to South Park in central Colorado.
This is the same moose that was spotted on Father's Day in Arvada. Wildlife officials say this is the first time they have had a tagged moose come back into town.
The moose is 2 years old and weighs about 700 pounds. Colorado Parks and Wildlife say the hope is that the young moose can find a mate and stay out of trouble.
