A moose has drowned after falling through ice on the Aroostook River in Presque Isle, according to the Maine Warden Service. “This was just a young moose that had walked out on the river and fell through the ice, and in the end it succumbed,” Warden Alan Dudley said. “Believe it or not, this is not uncommon. The only uncommon thing about this was that it was in public view.”
