"Canadian Town Wants To Reclaim World's Tallest Moose Statue Title"

RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:

Good morning, I'm Rachel Martin. For 31 years, the town of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, had one big claim to fame. It was home to the tallest moose statue in the world - until 2015, when Norway stole the title with a moose statue of their own. The Norwegian moose is less than a foot taller than Mac the moose.
