I am unfamiliar with any other premiere race or sporting event that has rules about what to do when you have to kill an animal in the middle of the race. Not saying that no other event has such rules. Maybe the Baja 1000 does - what to do if you hit a deer. I mean, you never see them having to stop the Kentucky Derby and kill a wild animal.

And for those who don't read the article - the moose is gutted, race officials are notified, and locals will go take the meat from the animal so it won't go to waste. |
Even with this issue, Seavey still won for a record 6th time.
