I don't know. I had a moose in my house once. I almost led it upstairs but decided against it. A moose is built different than a cow so my guess it would have made it ok coming down. You'd be surprised how small the inside of a house looks with a full grown cow moose standing in the living room. Fortunately for me and the house, she was just as easily led back outside.
