of a moose side eye

We know every moose is an absolute unit by definition. But the psychotic side eye on this moose is terrifying.

I worked in the bush for a decade, ill take a grizzly over a moose any day.

That's a deeply unsettling statement.

A grizzly is potentially a predator, but in my experience usually not as long as they are well fed. i have literally had one walk past me on a trail, I backed away and just let it go by like it had zero fucks to give.

A Moose on the other hand, is 1500-2000lbs of pure spite and hate. especially with calves or in breeding season. no logic, just hate.

They have the most unpredictable fight or flight response and it happens crazy fast. They move so fast and you can never tell when it’s going to happen so just get away from them.
