City mascot to get upgrade again

The City of Dryden this summer intends to repaint the city’s mascot, the beloved ‘Max The Moose’ located on Highway 17.

“Over the years Max has been repainted brown many times however this summer the intention is to have Max painted completely white to recognize the growing number of Albino moose being spotted in Northwestern Ontario and because white paint is cheaper to buy than brown.” 

Below is a picture of Max the Moose and with the help of AI we changed Max from brown to White and changed his eye color to red. This is probably what Max will look like late this summer.

If you haven’t already looked at the calendar and spotted it is April 1st we hope you enjoyed the chuckle. April Fools!
