For about two and a half weeks, moose "Emil" has been roaming as a "naturalized Lower Austrian" through the state.

Moose "Emil" has apparently also explored Lower Austria's state capital, as in recent days the animal moved towards St. Pölten. On the Facebook fan page "Emil the Moose," the animal continues to be digitally tracked, and on Saturday, almost 9,700 members were counted in the group.

Moose "Emil" is likely to have come from Poland to Lower Austria

"Emil" has not yet been spotted in the core of St. Pölten. However, he has been sighted repeatedly in recent days in the Pottenbrunn district, as several media outlets have reported. The moose is likely to have come from Poland and wandered through the Czech Republic to Lower Austria. Meanwhile, the moose's path is being eagerly traced on Facebook. The fan page frequently features comments wishing "Emil" good health. There are also appeals to leave the animal as undisturbed as possible on its journey through the state.
