A Calgary-based TikTok star has designed a new moose crossing sign that will be placed on Canada\u2019s highways.<\/p>\n

According to a CBC news report, Chlo\u00eb Chapdelaine, a social media influencer with over 300,000 followers on TikTok, said she played around with the moose design a few years ago.<\/p>\n

Chapdelaine was studying to be a visual designer at the time and had a summer job in the village of Foremost, Alberta.<\/p>\n

The TikTok star would often drive through the Prairies and see the moose crossing signs and first brought up the idea she had for the design with her coworkers at her summer job.<\/p>\n

She had a passion for graphic design and decided to sketch out her personal version of what the sign should look like.<\/p>\n

\u201cI took my Sharpie and I sat down and I drew out a brand new moose. And I ended up mailing letters to as many different departments of the government and transportation as I could just like hoping to hear back,\u201d she said in the news report.<\/p>\n

This year, the Transportation Association of Canada announced it will be going forward with Chapdelaine\u2019s moose design in its next set of signage.<\/p>\n

It will take a few more years for the signs to be updated on Canada\u2019s roads, but Chapdelaine said social media users have told her they\u2019ve already spotted a few.<\/p>\n

Chapdelaine said she created \u201cmoose merch\u201d for her fans to buy after not receiving any compensation from the government for the design. A portion of the proceeds will go towards wildlife rehabilitation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
