It's not fake.
You're the same guy who claims the Moose being suspended from the power lines was a fraud as well.

As the
Associated Press reported at the time:
The workers believe the moose may have come across the sagging and swaying wires and decided to challenge the power line to a fight, as bull moose are known to do during the rut, or mating season.
"My guess is he was in full rut and probably seen that line moving out there," and decided to fight, said Marvin Pickens, line construction manager for City Electric in Anchorage.
Crews can lay up to five miles of line at a time before tightening it with a giant hydraulic winch, said Pickens.
The line is pulled through leaders on the crossties at the top of the power poles and then winched tight with as much as 5,000 pounds of pressure, he said.
"As you're pulling, it constantly droops up and down," said Pickens. "My guess is that he was right in the middle of one of the sections when it got pulled up."
The moose was likely suspended in the air for only a matter of minutes before workers investigated and found it, Marian said.
It was tangled in static, the half-inch cable that is strung up next to the power lines to serve as a lightning rod, said Pickens.
[Department of Fish and Game technician Dave] Davenport talked to Karl Hanneman, manager of public and environmental affairs for Teck-Pogo, and made the decision to have City Electric workers shoot the moose, based on reports he got about the animal's condition.
