Keep 'em coming...I enjoy these videos from Alaska. I agree, I sure wouldn't stick around that close either. I've had close encounters with moose before, but just one at a time (one was even Valkyrie-related...galloped up towards us on a secluded road we were headed down in the Cariboo a couple of years ago
), not two like this throwing their racks around like that....powerful animals.
Yeah, the guy is really lucky he didn't get trampled. A lot of people back home are all over him for doing this. As he called them in an area where people hike and bike. And it's against park rules too. Really in my opinion the only reason he didn't get hurt was they were oblivious to him. They are full of hormones right now and have only one thing on their mind.
Talking about videos from AK. I sure wish they had these GoPro things back in the day.
I was waiting for both moose to notice him and say...WTF are you lookin at?
Reminds me of one time my brother and I were hunting. We were up on top of a small mountain glassing and spotted a nice bull making his way up the valley. We would try to get him to come up by imitating the sound of bulls fighting like those were. He would stop and look each time but wouldn't come up. Finally we gave up and started imitating a Cow moose in heat sound. That sucker immediately came all a full charge straight up the mountain. He was at full tilt, he was coming so fast we had to scurry for cover as to not be seen. He ended up coming right to us within 25 feet. He was a lover not a fighter. We referred to him as the "John Holmes" bull for years afterwards.
