Original Toronto Star caption: Any port in a storm for stranded moose. A young moose seeking to escape flood waters in New Brunswick found a refuge on a shed surrounded by second-hand farm machinery near a service station. Residents of the area made sure the moose had hay to eat - and it has plenty of water to drink. Although waters are receding in Fredericton; the area downstream from Maugerville to Sheffield is still deep in the muddy overflow from the St. John River.
