h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Meanwhile we are smiling about another accident which took place a couple of days in Norway: A driver was suddenly met by a moose in the middle of the road. Luckily he managed to avoid hitting Northern Europes' largest land animal - only to crash into a bear...

We shouldn't be smiling abut this, really, but it's just so surreal

apparently only the brown bear was wounded - the driver and the moose were not harmed

ah, good, found something in English:

Oh dear

That's really bad luck. I imagine that could happen here, with deer. The moose hang around in Alaska.

I enjoyed the related story from last year - about the Swedish elk that got drunk and stuck in an apple tree.

I would have loved to have seen him in court.

"I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of the Swedish Elk Party, m'lord. I might have got drunk and got stuck up an apple tree, but let's face it, who hasn't? No. No. I can assure you, I'm sober as a judge."

Ah, yes, the elk! What a wonderful story that made!

The picture was fantastic also, the flash made the eyes look like it was an undead elk from Hades
