Awesome video. Had a similar experience in the spring where a cow moose walked about half a mile to see what the heck I was (poor eyesight.) She came over, saw I was safe and continued browsing while enjoying my company.
The moose seems in good shape body wise to me. I have seen a few with deformed antlers. Its August so the antlers are nearly done growing. It probably hit it against a tree when it was just starting and softer...and just bent it a bit. Seems a tad curious, I'm amazed it wasn't spooked by the smoke. It must like camping!...And Coffee! "Cool Video! 😊👍
Almost had this at Manitou Lake in August this year by the portage head from Amable Du Fond. Woken up at 3am to what sounded like a Boeing 747 jet trampling through the bush 10 feet from my tent as I pissed myself then hearing it trample into the water like a canoe getting beached on shore. In the morning I saw all the tracks on the beach and broken branches where it effortlessly pushed through the brush. Just a big boy coming to check out the humans in its hood! 😂
What the heck Marty moose maple.. wonder if it was released and had comfort with Thanks for sharing gkad no one got hurt, except your coffee.. which must have hurt!
Lots of sightings by our cottage just south of Algonquin. I have had a cow run across the road 10' ahead of me luckily i was going exceptionally slow. Saw another stopped on hwy 118 just checking out traffic. Another young bull peaked out of the woods on hwy 118 and then disappeared back into the woods. Two young calfs were on the road leading to our cottage about 50' ahead of me. I stopped and reached for my camera but they saw me and went back into the woods . I was so disappointed. This spring though there were lots of tracks by our cottage with young ones too. That freaked me out for a while. This is over a span of 3 years. We're getting cameras installed as there is a lot of activity here 🦌🐻🐺🦊🦃🐿
we had a similar experience at provoking lake with a cow and calf. talk about animals that dont give a fuck. another instance my daughter and i were leaving kingscote lake and followed this mature calf for a few hundred meters and ya its entire ass end was just covered in what i assume were ticks. sorry that happened to your coffee
It seemed hungry and looking for food, perhaps it's gotten scraps from campsites in the past. It's ribs seemed to be fairly visible but not sure if more so than normal.

Crazy cool. Walked away a litte dejected. Its always proper camping edicate to offer those visiting your camp some coffee.
That is a very close encounter. Thanks for sharing this experience with us.

What a beautiful moment. Cheers from Montreal. Haven’t been to Algonquin Park in years. So nice.
Amazing encounter. I'm surprised the fire didn't alarm him.

WOWWWWWWWWWWW :) tx for the video my friend! :)
The knocked over cup was worth the interchange I’d say.
He wants a beer; get him a Moosehead!
He just wants to visit :)
Making another coffee would be the least of your problems if the moose decided to charge😂
Incredible animals.

Apparently he was expecting flapjacks..
I’d rather lose the coffee than have him attack………😂😂😂😂😂😂
We have deer where I live. Their behaviour around people is usually quite more timid than this.
Nice vid
Smelt the timmies .....what do u expect he's a Canadian 😂
Those are tics on the moose and they can actually kill by rendering the moose anaemic if there’s enough of them.
That was epic!
It was but definitely not on my list of things to do again! LOL
@@tagshadowson 😂😂
Probably looking for the flying squirrel! Duh hey Rocky ?
If you would have said… Ohhh!! Let me get my camera- he would have taken off so fast lol
lolololololololololol Love it!!
Couldn't see the bugs. Curious fella
Where did you buy your Portreer camping chairs ???
Amazon I believe, we have had them for a while now.
Just checking to make sure that wasn’t a moose steak on the grill.
That’s what non-campers think happens when camping.
I thought he was going to steal your shoe.
My reaction would be the same when moose hits coffee. He was so curious. Baffling behavior

Poor fellow looks a bit skinny
I feel like he just school bullied you. Like he just came down to slap your coffee over
Hahahahah
Poor moose is obviously unwell 😢
Why do you say that???
@@justinflott5133
Because healthy moose….. do not come anywhere near human’s & campfires…. Especially in the bush.
@@creatorschild8247 they do in Algonquin. They’ve become somewhat habituated.
@@justinflott5133 moose aren’t like deer…… unless they’re sick. Usually a tick in the brain.
I live in Algonquin…. It’s my backyard
@@creatorschild8247 - so do I. Elephant Lake rd.
That is undoubtedly a very unhealthy moose. I wonder if it survived the winter...
If we happen to make it back into Bigger this year I will be on the lookout for him! I would imagine he made it but that is just my guess.
Not sure what you mean by unhealthy? Did you see something I didn't. He did look health to me, but what do I know about Moose.
Yeah I don’t think that antler deformities suggest health issues. They may have worse luck during the rut but he seems healthy in this vid.
Mineral deficiency can cause varied antler growth. Nothing wrong with that bull

Tenderloins for breakfast, yum!
Wow, what a big dog! 😂 Jkjk. I’m from Canada too and I’m waiting for the day I encounter one in the wild. 🫎
I would have made a mess in my pants, that's awesome!
Visit and be polite...that's OK...BUT WHEN YOU KNOCK MY COFFEE OVER...IT'S GAME ON!!!
I'd shit my pants
