According to Swedish newspaper Expressen, Ibrahimovic, 33, returned to his homeland for Christmas when he&rsquo;s alleged to have gone on a hunting trip during which he shot dead a 500kg moose, reports Xinhua.
According to the paper, the Swedish star killed the animal with &ldquo;one shot through its heart&rdquo; and is &ldquo;very happy&rdquo; with his trophy.
Earlier this year, the PSG player, known as a hunting enthusiast, even appeared in a Volvo advertisement in which he points a gun at a moose.
The claims that the advert became a reality has led to anger from animal rights activists. &ldquo;It is problematic,&rdquo; Expressen quoted Camilla Bjorkbom of Sweden&rsquo;s Animal Rights&rsquo; Union as saying. &ldquo;It is always problematic when famous people do things like that, because then it looks like they support this type of activities.&rdquo;
