An ambulance responding to a serious crash involving a moose in Algonquin Park also collided with a moose early Sunday, Ontario police say.
An ambulance collided with a moose early Sunday as it responded to another crash, also involving a moose, Ontario Provincial Police say.
The first crash was reported just after 1 a.m. on Highway 60, near Tea Lake in Algonquin Park, police said. A vehicle struck a moose, left the roadway and then hit a tree.
“One of the two Muskoka Paramedic Service ambulances responding to the scene also collided with a moose,” police said, adding that the ambulance was “extensively” damaged, but no one was injured.
Often moose hit by a car have to be euthanized because their legs are broken (moose are tall af). The one hit by the ambulance would also likely be euthanized as it would have suffered internal injuries.
