“The snowmobilers are out entertaining themselves. If it started to approach and kept coming, just step behind a tree, weapon drawn just in case.”
Maybe you know that. I do not. For all I know these snowmobilers are returning to a remote cabin from shopping in Fairbanks, 50 miles away.
I doubt such trail would be so well traveled by other snowmobiles.
These jackasses had other options. Instead, they confronted the moose, shot and left it to die.
