In a video posted from Norway recently, which has had over 800,000 views on YouTube so far, a robot mower tries to take on an apple stealing moose - and loses!

The moose who appears to be happily munching away at someone's apples, presumably belonging to the robot's master, plays it cool up until the last second.

The robot, which is just quietly going about its business, appears oblivious to the violent fate which is about to befall it. Behold -

There is no word yet whether the next generation of robotic mowers will be moose-proofed as a standard feature.
