@SlothMothCloth pointed out that the rotation of the moose in yesterday's video, youtube.com/watch?v=9P8MMMTjHnQ&lc=UgwGXm9h-dZxg86H5-l4AaABAg, looked very strange. This was a correct observation. The rotational axes were wrong in that video (for the moose only, though).
Here the extruded bronze moose raises from the ashes and rotates more physically accurate in free space, where rotational instability occurs in the intermediate rotational axis (Dzhanibekov effect). An extruded iron triceratops also plays the same game, as does the closing extruded gold kiwi.
