    Johnston Miller says first they thought it was vandalism but then realized it had to be a moose.

    Some moose can be dangerous and some moose don’t like disc golf baskets. Johnston Miller is the president of the Corner Brook Disc Golf club. He says this past weekend, a moose attacked the basket on hole 14. Miller says first they thought it was vandalism but then realized it had to be a moose. He says they have seen evidence of moose being on the course but this is the first time one has done any damage. Miller says it took 5 people to put the basket back in shape.
