BUCKSPORT — A juvenile male moose must have gotten a taste for the city life because it returned to town Aug. 3.
The moose was last spotted in Bucksport July 26, when it caused a traffic jam on Route 1. It was sedated and released in Orland.
Its reappearance last week was reported by someone at Bucksport Square Apartments. The moose was eventually cornered in a fenced area at a nearby construction site and tranquilized.
“He was transported even further away,” said Bucksport Police Sgt. David Winchester.
