INCREDIBLE! Caleb Mahin captured this video of a moose roaming through a cornfield in north central Kansas last week. 🫎 KTKA in Topeka spoke with Laura Clawson with the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, who said seeing a moose in the Sunflower State “is incredibly rare.” The last confirmed moose sighting in Kansas came in December 2019 near Scandia, also in Republic County, while the one before that was spotted in 1989. 📍 Courtland, Republic County, Kansas | KAKE News
