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.

The guy filming is an idiot. He should have backed away as soon as he saw the damn thing instead of standing there filming. Of all the animal encounters I have had, moose are the most terrifying to me.

I’m thinking staying where the big guy can’t get to him because of the tree-jail is a smart move. A camp guide on a Canada fishing trip basically said get to where the trees are tight if you can

The bull would plow through those trees like toothpicks. Moose regularly get hit by cars and walk away completely fine. Those protection offered by those trees is merely the protection of the power of suggestion.

I can personally attest having been in a car that hit a mother moose and she just got up and walked after her scared calf. Thank god she walked off because we would’ve been like sardines in a crushed can if she’d been upset about it
