Emil, the moose that captured public attention while roaming across Czechia and Austria this summer, has been relocated to safety near the Šumava National Park. Austrian authorities tranquilized the animal on Monday morning after it wandered dangerously close to a highway near the town of Sattledt in Upper Austria. Officials explained that Emil appeared ready to leap over the highway fence, posing a risk to both drivers and himself.
After being sedated, Emil was loaded onto a trailer and transported to the Rohrbach district, close to the borders of Austria, Germany, and Czechia.
