A young bull moose is causing a bit of a sensation in western Wisconsin.

It was spotted in Dunn County and then a couple of days ago it was seen near Eau Claire.

Moose don’t usually travel that far south, officials said. It probably came from Minnesota or the upper peninsula, the Wisconsin DNR says.

It also warned people to leave the moose alone and stay away, but people didn’t listen. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel says 40 cars lined up along Highway 37 to observe the moose yesterday.
