Looks like a Moose picked a fight with the power company, and lost!
Line workers in Alaska were running a new service, and while pulling the line tight, they noticed a problem. After backtracking the line, they found a moose hanging from the wire

The moose apparently got its antlers tangled in electrical wire before workers farther down the line pulled the line tight about two weeks ago.
