While working in Glacier National Park over the summer at the Many Glacier Hotel, I witnessed this crazy occurrence. The Mama Moose had twins, and after several days of stalking them, the bear got the first baby. However, when he went for the second baby, this is what happened.
It's been just over a month since this happened, and as far as we can tell the baby moose is still safe and sound due to the Mama Moose's courage and constancy. Let's go, queen.
And yes, this is the original video and I have all rights.
Permission required to post this video.
Two important takeaways from this:
1) Bears are way faster than you think
2) Moose are way more dangerous than you think
I knew both of those things since I was 16 and I'm 68 now... Go spend a summer in Yellowstone or other big national park, do some back country hiking and you'll either learn about the critters or you'll die of stupidity... One or the other. Listen to the Park Rangers!
why can't they just leave each other alone
@@user-gk1lo6ni1b the bear is hungry, and the moose is angry
@@Middenikov i don't see it like that, i think by putting human emotions in place of animal instincts is more logical, e.g if the bear is hungry it could perhaps order a take away and if the moose is angry it could invest in some anger management courses, lots of them are free online
@@user-gk1lo6ni1b I never looked at it that way, thanks
If you ever see a bear running for its life, you better run, too.
😂😂😂
I would say .. get out of its way !!
😂😂😂
@@radiocontrolled9181 Trust me.. you want to be outrunning the bear not just getting out of his way otherwise you become the target
@@9753flyer The only problem is you just cannot outrun a bear. Not even if you're an athlete. Those things are very fast. Just take a left or a right and get out of its way.
The sound of the bear crashing into glass just out of view is like something straight outta _Looney Tunes,_ hilarious stuff. xD
Someone should dub in Tom and Jerry screams 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that _"OH SHIT!!!"_ was actually from the bear, not from one of the ppl watching
it's not that funny as the bear may have been badly cut
Yes exactly! Lol
@@user-gk1lo6ni1b lol shut yo gay ass up, the bear's fine
If you've ever seen a moose in person, it's like a prehistoric encounter. Massive beasts.
Yup. Big muffugers
Saw 1 on our way from Iowa past Denver a few years ago. On the side only for 15 seconds. People forget how big they are. Beautiful in their own way.
I had a moose walk 2 feet in front of me a few months ago..... I shit my pants literally
I had a moose walk 2 feet in front of me a few months ago..... I shit my pants literally
i see moose every single day just about -here in Anchorage Alaska
i get so used to it, but the tourists and locals all alike always gather around them and watch, and take pics/videos
The bear smashing into the building shattering glass was like a scene out of a cartoon.
Poor chungus just tryna run from a moose and now he probably cut his face up
I had to scroll to see if anybody said what I was thinking. I laughed so hard when I heard that glass break. 😂
@@annasbandit Probably not, it has thick fur that would likely keep it from getting cut when it bounced off the window, causing it to break. 🐻
😂Lol
The bear had already eaten one other babies and was going back for seconds@@zjjohnson3827
I've backpacked in bear country, and most encounters were the sight of a bear's rear-end as it ran away. But my most nervous encounter was face to face with a moose on a narrow trail in a mountaintop in Maine. I literally had nowhere to go except into the thick bushes, and the moose walked by and completely ignored me. The size of these things is astounding.
Haha I live in Maine I'd say moose are way more dangerous then bear maybe unless the bear has cubs but that's a different story
Drive a small car under a moose. 😉
Me too! I was hiking the Russel Pond trail in Baxter State Park one time and came face to face with a moose. It was only about 20’ in front of me. Fortunately it did an about face and took off running.
Try saying that with a bear running straight at you, it'll be a different story then huh bruhh.
@@EpicEmotions Nah dude, you legit would probably be equally scared if either of them are running towards you. If not, you should be. They'll both end your life without a second thought.
MANNN! That bear went from being a bada$& to being a scared-a$& real quick!! 😂😂
Lol!
Hilarious!!!
Grandmaster flash! Broken glass everywhere! 😉😂
Well that escalated quickly! Hahah
You'd shit your pants if a moose was charging you lol
The bear was attacking her baby. You can hear the baby moose crying when bear went in water. That’s a mother right there.
And you can hear the baby at the end when Mama returns 😍
If I remember correctly, that mom moose had two babies. And this bear had been following them for days and eventually got one of the babies.
@@TimberlakeTigerGirl And in this video, the bear came back for the second baby.
Lol
I laughed when the bear shouted, "Oh sh*t!" and crashed into something.
😂 I needed this, thank you
The something is where you sit to drink your coffee before going into the gift shop.
lmao
From someone who has lived in Alaska, we were always taught to fear the moose ( especially during the rut ) more than the bear.
We had runners killed near Bicentennial trail when they went between the mom and calf. Momma moose are no joke!!
Nope they will stomp, Bite, kick and horn you. Way deadlier than a bear
Honestly makes sense to me. Both animals are easily capable of messing you up, so at that point I would be more worried about which one would act more aggressive.
@@happycamper4429 you had runners killed? did the cops catch you?
What is a “rut”? I’ve never been in Alaska and would like to go someday.
Moose: hey Smokey, I’ll show you how to prevent forest fires!!!!
Another amazing thing about these big animals, especially moose, is how quiet they can be in the bush, both in stillness and on the move. You’ve got to not hear it to believe it . . .
Hear what, the sound of your bones breaking as it tramples you? Lol
@@dive2drive314”you’ve got to NOT hear it to believe it”
@@shagarumedic oh... i missed that part. Lol
Except during the rut the bull moose sound like bulldozers coming out of the woods even the bears run away during this time of the year as the bulls are ready to fight anything they see.
Wow! Not what I expected. People aren't kidding when they say moose are crazy dangerous. Lesson learned. 😳
Im more scared of moose than i am of bears...that includes running into 1 on the highway tho.
I would have to agree after watching that:)
I actually expected exactly this. Don’t mess around with a moose fr. Equally or more potentially dangerous than a bear. Have something that weighs and is the size of a small car running at you that fast…. Sometimes with big antlers..
@@T-roc57 Agree! Have heard the stories about hit moose going through windshields. I know what a deer can do, so...
@@markgentry6688 👍🙂
I’m always amazed at how speedy and agile a grizzly is. It’s a good example of why park rangers get so frustrated with the limited distance tourists usually maintain from them in places like Yellowstone.
Yea these people think that just because an animal is 50 to 100 yards away that it can't get to you in an instant
But isn’t Yellow stone still closed due to the flooding or was it a mudslide? I can’t remember, I know some roads were damaged and they said they planned on creating different routes.
Yeah that bear dropped down a gear and gave it some gas. No chance of out running that sucker.
For anyone that thinks they could run from a bear or climb a tree. If a bear wants you and your only options of believed escape are climbing a tree or running…..You are done for. In fact you would have a better yet slim chance by running at the bear yelling as loud as you can throwing rocks and waiving your arms like a mad man.
@@Yah-Izoa-HakabothYellowstone is huge it probably was just a section closed because remember Yellowstone goes through Wyoming parts of Idaho and Montana so three states
Bear: It was just a prank, bro!
Moose, "I was just giving the dopey tourists something to film!".
Imagine thinking your about to get a snack and then suddenly running for your life from a giant dinosaur deer into a weird brittle force field thing to only get laughed at by a some naked monkeys above you who saw the whole thing while you run away… lol
I grew up in Alaska. I think people thought I was crazy for saying we were more afraid of moose than bears. Bears didn’t want to be seen. We’d see their tracks in the snow. My dog wasn’t afraid of bears, but moose. He had a serious phobia 😂 I knew one was in our yard when he’d start SCREAMING!! Cocoa would take off up the stairs to our deck and bolt into the house.
I remember an interview with one of the Iditarod mushers and they said moose in their opinion was the biggest danger of the whole thing over wolves and bears. Plus the moose in Alaska/Northern Canada make Montana moose look small.
@@montanastranger
Yep, that sounds about right! I’ve seen polar bears play with sled dogs. I’d be more concerned with wolves and moose too.
I came to comments to say the same. I grew up outside of Fairbanks and moose are dicks!
Smart dog!
Born and raised! Once saw a bull pick up a grizzly and chuck him ten feet
Had a moose and her baby live in our backyard in Livingston, Montana, many years ago for several weeks. Mama stepped over our 5' fence once in a while as if it were nothing. Beautiful animals. Made good "neighbors."
They are beautiful animals and are mostly non-agressive.
@@gryph01 - Mostly. But when they’re PO’d - watch out!
Thanks for commenting…., we just came thru Livingston yesterday( gas, food): anyhow,we rented a House on (Anaconda) Georgetown Lake for a week ; having Moose *& small Moosette come down to lake , ETC , twice , made the VACATION.. Actually,Great Lake & Area…
@@gryph01
Unless you piss ‘em off.
Then you got 1 and a half tons of hooves and bulk after your ass.
@@beastmaster0934 Oh yes. A friend of my father was treed by a bull for hours.
The speed of the bear is astonishing and frightening.
Well the moose wasn’t too slow either 😂
@@frits8986 yep, but that bear will eat ya!
@@culturedape279the moose will stomp you into a paste
Its easy to think of a moose as a deer type animal until you've seen one in person. They are so much more massive than youd imagine them to be
That's the shed where you pickup your tickets for the Grinnell Glacier boat shuttle! WOW! Incredible footage! We were there the week before you shot this! That's the small Lodge gift shop he smashed into. Thanks for sharing! AWESOME!
Yeah, actually this was taken in preseason before the hotel opened, I just couldn't get the internet to work at the hotel to post this for several weeks. Exciting that you know the exact location!
@@AndrewStories small world 🌎🌍
I know the bear needs to eat to survive but this was hilarious. How the bear ran toward the water to escape usually it's other way around. Being on that balcony and hearing glass break that would put goosebumps down my spine.
as long as you can outrun your bear you are good ,....... form the mooose lol
@@dollyhadbraces9361 And to outrun the bear you just need to outrun your friend.
@@dsrguru Bear gets friend; moose gets you. I think that advice falls short in this particular circumstance ';O)
"Or-Moosebumps..." (The Dad-joke part of my brain demanded it be said.)
they would have died if their precious phones dropped
00:07 Moose looks over at Bear like, “Dude… you don’t want none of this.”
You could see the momma kept looking at the bear as if to say “I know this fool ain’t gonna try messing with my child””come here fool!”🤣🤣
Yep. Why I camp with a portable electric bear fence, because I don’t have a moose.
They don't trailer well behind small vehicles. :-)
🤣🤣
@@dankingjr.2088 😆
You literally bought the sea bear circle just get some chalk next time
A guard moose, they are quieter than dogs
The hotel bar is right below this balcony and it must have been their window that was busted. I'd like to think that at least a couple people were enjoying drinks and had no idea what was going on outside only to suddenly see a grizzly bear shatter the bar window right in front of them!
*shits self*
That’s one way to sober up!!
At least its short walk back to the hotel room to change undies
That would be a cause to move up to whiskey from my beer! 😳
Imagine the grizzly sitting at the bar and saying, “I need a drink, that moose is out of control”
This was absolutely one of the funniest things I've ever seen. That bear ran like a little kid! 🤣😂🤣😂
"I don't need horns to kick yo ass!"
🤣🤣🤣 I think that is the first time I have ever seen a bear thinking about getting into the water to get away from a moose.
I’m from Quebec and moose are known to be unpredictable. Years ago my wife and I crossed into Maine and the border guard told us to be vigilant as it was late evening and moose were sighted. We spotted 17 moose on the road that night. Took us 2 hours to do 40 miles. One stood in the middle of the road and when we approached he started running alongside our car like a moose wingman. He was about a foot away from my door. A park ranger in New Hampshire told us moose have no sense of where to go when faced with danger. This makes for unpredictable behaviour.
Great video. Montana is a beautiful state.
yea with a bear you can kinda read the behavior and it can too, so you might be ok, but looking at a moose is like looking at a car from a horror movie. it stands like dumb and youre not sure if its even noticing you and then its running either your direction or some other. i guess that why many dont even acknowledge their existence. theyre like giants of the forest who live their own life and no one can grasp it
Well moose often will get into the water if they can and they feel in danger
Bear looked so adorable when he was running his ass off lol
Yes, that round chonky butt was cute 😊
I had a moose hanging in the corner of a gas station I worked at, they are 8 feet tall,
And that Bear,1000lbs and running like that. I never would have thought a bear could move as fast as they do and for long periods, thank you INTERNET.
The moose wins Mother of Year Award for her bravery
Grizzly:"Looks like a nice,easy meal".
Moose:"Guess again."
Grizzly:" I can wait."
Impressed by how fast and agile that moose is. Both are dangerous beasts.
Moose: Think I might have a sip of water.
Bear: Think I might have some moose.
Moose: Is that a fact?
Bear: RUN!!!!
Just stood on that balcony and walked out those doors a month ago. My little kids loved this video since we were just there. Crazy!
Wow that is so amangly not remotely interesting to anyone but you
@@slowery43 amangly?
That is very cool!
I remember hearing some talk of a bear breaking a window at many glacier while I was there at the beginning of this month, now I know what happened.
0:46 Sounds like the bear's windshield got smashed in. Didn't use his turn signal.
I never thought much of the moose all my life, grew up in Chicago so I never dealt with them. I was working in Minnesota and one was walking through our employee parking lot, I had no idea they were soo massive. I'm 6'8" and around 255 lbs so I'm a big guy, that moose dwarfed me in a way I'll never forget. I'll bet the bear didn't realize until it started getting bigger the more it came out of the water of how bit it really was.
You met one of the smaller moose, too. This is an Alaskan moose, the biggest of them. These suckers are over 6 foot tall at the shoulder and weigh between 1200-1600+ pounds. Even bears are scared of adult moose.
The largest moose ever taken was in Alaska, at well over 8 feet tall once you add in the head and antlers, and weighing 1808lbs.
The bear had allready taken the other calf and was out to get the last one.
So it knew how big it was and how to deal with the moose. Most likely got the last one aswell, as it had stalking them for days.
@@Norwegian733 surely didn't look like it knew how to deal with the moose, running away towards humans and crashing into the house lol
I saw a moose once when I was in Maine. Nothing "cute" about that fu*ker at all. Needless to say, I hope I never see another one again. I suppose they're "majestic animals" (from a distance) but that one experience was frightening and very unpleasant plus it didn't exactly help that I was alone
@@RichardSchiffman-jn1ds man, they are something else aren't they? It's rare for most of us when we come across something that puts us in our place like that. My wife has ridden horses all her life, to this day I haven't even sat on a horse. The first few times I would spend time around them, I was nervous as hell. They are soo powerful
Andrew has been documenting his whole life, this is his first BIG TIME
Congratulations Andrew, your famous. This is the content you've been waiting for.
Aww bestie, thanks bro! Appreciate it it’s pretty exciting!
Zefroniac: It's "you're" famous.
@@lazurmoh here we go🤦🏿♂️
And just like that, the grizzly never f'd with a moose again. 😂
Moose attack dog sleds, too. I was chased by a moose while on a motorcycle in rural northern Minnesota. Scared the crap out of me!!
I was on Cobble Hill and heard this crashing getting louder.
I found a solid tree to duck behind and this moose came running through the woods at full out speed breaking limbs off trees and ripping out brush. Maybe 50 ft fr me and I wasn't even a blip on his radar. Impressive and scarey at the same time
I live in Northern most New Hampshire ,.The Canadian Border is 3 miles to the north of us .My nearest neighbor is two miles to the South on US 3 .
Well she was on her way down to Colebrook 35 miles to the South to do shopping in a Honda Civic .Along the Connecticut bottoms in Pittsburg NH ,she saw a young calf Moose in the shallows so pulled off to the North bound side of the road at a small gravel turn off just above the the river about 10 feet.
She had no sooner shut the car off when the passenger side window , front windshield and corner post exploded in a shower of glass and the car ender up down the embankment sideways with the car horn blowing. Yeep the Civic was attacked and totaled by an angry Moose .
We visited her at home and the poor lady was still in shock, bruised , battered and without a car .but with a hell of a story to tell her adult kids
And the Moose ,well it was a hit and run ,no sign of it but fur and some Moose prints.
Awesome haha! I lived in Northern Idaho for awhile. I'm from the south. When I moved there, I was worried about bears, wolves and M. Lions. (As anyone should be) Everyone up there told me, to beware of Moose first and worry about everything else afterwards lol.
Great video! I grew up in Alaska, and moose are elegant, powerful, big, and dangerous. They accessed the streets through our suburban yard all the time.
For anyone who thinks they can outrun a Bear, think again. Those guys can really shift. Always go out to the backcountry with someone you can run faster than, and you'll be fine!
I'll take my kids, thanks for the tip. 👍
@@captainchaos3667 Ill take the mother in law
Who the hell would ever think they can outrun a bear? Just thinking that anyone can even think this is absurd, yes?
@@lazurm Dumbass City Folk...... the same idiots that get out of their cars to pet (or get gored by) the Bison in Yellowstone?
Or, just don't go out into the backcountry, especially when bears are with their cubs.
Was driving East out of Yellowstone on backroads a year ago. Got to the hotel, turned on the TV. Local news reported a car hitting a moose 2 hours after I had passed along the same road. Two people in the vehicle died, moose survived. People don't appreciate how massive and tough moose are. Look at the ceiling of wherever you're sitting right now; an adult moose's head would touch that ceiling.
While working in the bush for 19 years (usually alone), I was generally more nervous about meeting with a bull in rut or a cow with calves than grizzly bears.
I hear you. They can absolutely kill a person
What about a mama griz? Ive heard thats the most dangerous of all of them!
@@juliebryne2903 both are equally dangerous, in fact any wild animal protecting it’s young should be avoided. As far as which is worse is pretty situation dependent, either way, hurt or dead is bad.
@rrjprivate2704 This was nothing, you should see a big bull moose pissed off lol. About twice the size of this one with a monster rack on its head 😂
@rrjprivate2704 true but they're tall af so you better be a fast climber with a headstart 😂
Wow!! Thanks for the explanation. I didn't even see the baby, but I thought I heard it. So incredible the way that Mama moose is fighting to protect her last baby!
Wow that explains even more !
Mama's protect their young !
I've watched several times and can't find the baby moose. Where is it? Thanks
@@jh76103 I didn't see it either. The best guess I have is at about @0:25 where the grizzly appears in the bushes behind the shed. The baby may have been there.
I'm not convinced there is one there. Moose despise bears because they do take their calves, so this one didn't need any more provocation than the bear approaching it too near. After the moose gave it time to reconsider and move off, it correctly assesed the bear was entertaining stalking it. As you know, moose have strong fight or flight reactions, and this moose was in the water where it was vulnerable, so it chose fight and went on the offensive. Bears swim just fine, so swimming away was not an option for the moose.
On the other hand, the moose returning to the exact spot at the end of the video strongly suggests the calf was on the other side of the cabin, out of view.
This is the most intense Grizzly vs cow moose video online by far. I’m awed by this.
That moose was " you better get your punk ass outta here before I kick it."
Bear: "mmm, moose steaks sound nice"
Moose: "mmm, trampled bear sounds nice"
I lived in Juneau, Alaska from 1972-75, Kodiak from 1977-79, and Anchorage from 1979-2017. Been to Fairbanks and worked where the oil pipeline begins in Prudhoe Bay. Face to face with many bears and moose over the years. I've told a bear to go home and it did. (easier to do when your buddy has a shotgun and you have a .44 magnum)
But the most tense encounter was suddenly discovering during a hike in the rain that I was six feet from a moose...A cow with a calf...wait, two calves!...Holy crap, three calves! Eye contact was unnerving, like:
"You best be cool."
"I am cool, cool ,cool, just passin' through."
"Keep on going."
"Yes Ma'am!"
Do you know if this is a male or female?
@@ArizonaMMJ If you're asking about the bear, the only sure way to tell (lacking cubs) is observation of urination or genital examination.
I like how the moose goes right back to the exact same spot afterwards.
"That's not gonna be good for business..." 🤣
A moose is 6ft tall at the shoulder with split hooves as big as a large domino's pizza. As a chubby old grizzle bear, I'd respect that momma moose too! What a magical place Glacier is!
Wow, that is an amazing scene. Very lucky to have witnessed and recorded that!
Honestly moose are underrated. They’re basically the hippos of the Americas.
A good lesson from this. If you see a baby moose and think it needs help, make SURE it's really abandoned and no momma around.
Whoever yelled out he broke the glass is a genius.
Haha, my thoughts exactly, just keep quiet and enjoy.
Only reason I can surmise as to why the witnesses laughed is because they’re actually terrified at the brute power of these two creatures.
Bear : I am the apex predator!
Moose: why you little shit!
Thanks for not being clickbait, that was cool.
[Glass Shatters]
"He broke the glass."
I believe this to be accurate.
Yepp that's certainly added a healthy level of fear and awareness in me😐
Was not expecting that outcome
It’s hard to not see bears as cute. They are so dangerous, but often act like big pussycats.
Bears and moose are like people. Most don't want trouble but some have an attitude.
I had an 8-day stay at the Glacier hotel in June of 2021. The lakeside balcony room allowed a beautiful view of the area. When you walk around the hotel, it's best to be mindful of the possibility of encountering a bear at any time.
What was the point of this comment
How much was it?
Looks like $500+ weekends ,$300 ish weekday.Many Glacier Hotel Mt
@@AAAskeet I booked a year in advance, then it cost $265 per night. The price was no higher for the weekend.
Thanks I'll bear that in mind
I've met that bear.....about a year ago. His name is Crash. Not a bad bear, just overly friendly and the meeses hate him to pieces.
that bear must've seen a sign that said "break glass in case of an emergency"
A chaque fois qu'un grizzly se plante, je suis contente! Et j'ai le fou rire et cette vidéo est vraiment comique! C'est une magnifique vidéo! Merci!
Sweet video, Andrew! Thanks for posting!
Thanks! I was so lucky to be there for such a crazy event.
Holy shit when that Moose hits the full speed button he can fly!!!
Bear: “RUN FOR YOUR LIVES EVERYONE!!!”
I was waiting for the part where everyone on the deck laughs and squeals with delight until the griz climbs up the scaffolding and lands on the deck! Don't mess with a moose!
I like the way that moose immediately goes back to chilling behind that building.
That's where her calf was. She had to get back to it before the bear did.
Scary how fast those things can move when they want to.
😂 Moose: “Oh so you think you want a piece of this? Okay!”
The mighty, majestic Moose! What a beautiful sight. That wasn't even a bull 🤣
The moral of the story: Do not mess with a moose.
Bethesda did a really good job working on that
Poor bear!! It was in full panic mode, lol. A full grown moose is like a monster truck on hooves and is no joke.
Were walking along this shoreline less than a month ago - incredible
Were?
I am even more wary of a moose than a bison or bear when hiking in Yellowstone. This just confirms my feeling.
“Ay, he kinda beeg though, nevamind, hah!”
So that is the best way to scare a bear: wear your Halloween moose costume.
Imagine being big and intimidating enough to scare a grizzly bear.
@Christopher Jacobs moose have been known to try to charge logging trucks and trains. They ain't no joke.
Lol a human child could scare a grizzly . It depends on the situation.
@@JD-re3cj next time you're in Glacier or Yellowstone, let me know. I'd love to see you scare an adult grizzly. I'll film it and you can become an internet sensation!

Beautiful innocent playful behavior of those two in natural environment, they are just fooling around, jogging here and there.
Legend has it, that bear is still running today.
I worked at many years ago. The bears kept us in the dorm in the mornings while they inspected the dumpster. Beautiful place 😍
Aww, a fellow Many employee! They really do keep us on our toes, we've had bears on property everyday for weeks, keeping security very busy!

@@FanceeName the juvenile bear was the one in danger here.. no baby moose here bro..
@@AndrewStories you da man
@@marcoduvall4404
I see. It sounded like there was an outcry before the moose attacked.
I got a job in Wyoming in the Big Horn mountains.....Meadowlark Lodge was the lake lodge that was the base for the employees and my cabin was on the lake there, got to see loads of Moose, but there they always kept their distance. There is a wooded lodge area down the road going West and I stayed there first though and I was told not to even worry about bears, I was told to be deathly afraid of Moose, especially during mating seasons or if it were a momma Moose.
I got charged by a bull moose coming out of my cabin once and I got to see 2 moose lock horns and fight for about 15 minutes, but I never saw a bear. I think I know why now. That bear was terrified!
:43 - :44 You can hear when the Moose is running, suddenly it starts clomping and sounds like horse hooves, cause the thing is lifting its legs up high when running and hoping to bring them down with serious force on that bears back or hindquarters. I would imagine had that bear gotten hit just right with a single stomp, it could have gotten its back broken. Terrifying the amount of aggression a Moose can have, and how good they are at charging!
Nice! I backpacked there in the bighorns just east of Meadowlark lake many times. Beautiful country. Saw a lot of elk but not much moose.
@@dannyh8288 Did you go to the ski hill...."Big Horn Ski Resort"? There is a trail that takes you to a part above the ski hill and there is a look out tower for wild fires.....is that the direction you were
That moose was like, you talking to me, you talking to me, well, you must be talking to me cause I don't see anyone else here.😂😂😂😂
When you think you're an apex predator at the very top of the food chain...but quickly find out you're nothing but a puny little bunny.
Bro that Moose was MOVING! Incredible how an animal that big can be that fast.
Shocked to see a bear run from something it eats. Was it a young bear?
There was a moose calf you couldn't see behind the building. That's the crying sound you hear just as the moose charges. The bear wasn't going after her, but her baby. Momma ain't having none of that.
Only very confident, massive or desperate bears attempt to take on adult moose. Those things are the closest to a tank besides hippos, elephants and rhinos
Moose: “Dare to interrupt my evening bath?! YOU MUST PAY!”
Came across a moose in Yellowstone (1960’s) and that thing must have been 12’ tall at the top of his antlers- never been so scared in my life, he could’ve literally turned your car over and this was a time when 25 bears would come on the road surrounding all the vehicles wanting handouts😂
Totally the way I thought that would play out. If you’ve ever seen a moose, you know they are huge animals
that was just a piece of the altercation, the way it "plays out" is the bear keeps doing that until the mother is exhausted then it eats both her calves alive right in front of her and then it eats her alive.
