WILDLIFE WATCHING -- A yearling moose apparently was trying out as a walk-on for the North Central High School track team this morning.

A moose would be be hard to beat in the hurdles.

The moose was tranquilized and transported out of Spokane for release by Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife staff.
