The best thing to do with a moose is to exercise social distancing and remember that they don’t want to be your friend.
This happens a lot. Stupid humans.
Lol. Great movie.

You can take the idiots out of the city, but you can’t . . . . . You know the rest.”
lol...you said cheese!
Some of family lives in Alaska they treat moose with the same respect and caution as they do brown bears.
So, will a moose kill again, once it has already kilt a stoopid human?
I’ve seen idiots up at Yellowstone walk right up to a bull Buffalo to take pictures. I urge them to get closer.
Doesn't sound like they knew how to antle'er.

...and there it is......

A moose bit my sister once.
Fortunately though, they are delicious.
I agree...to a point.
Now when a fox comes after my chickens, all bets are off.
LOL
BRILLIANT!
A few years ago during the summer as I was traveling from Clarkston, Washington to the Tri-Cities on HWY 124 I was just past the little town of Prescott and all the traffic had slowed to crawl and some had stopped. I assumed it was more highway construction. But then as I got closer I could see that there was a moose in the front yard of a big farm house. So I stopped to take some pictures because it’s not everyday you see a moose in near 100 degree weather walking out of a wheat field.
The house was about 200 feet off the highway and the moose was just meandering around checking out the place, when another passerby walked up beside me and said, “lets get closer”.
I told him he was nuts and that moose we’re known to charge.
Well a grizzly will try to eat me just doing what comes naturally so...
But I do agree with you. Moose are everywhere in Park City. And elk. Both magnificent animals and when I see one killed by a car on the side of the road my heart is saddened (unless it is my car - which is totalled - then I’m pissed).
Now that is proper moose protocol.
Serves her right for karving her initials into it...
Over the winter we had a big cow moose and her big male calf hanging around our barn. Mama left her baby boy (which is usual this time of year because she is pregnant and ready to have another one soon) so baby boy decided he would just stay at our house. I was working with my wife out in the barn two weeks ago. The barn door was open and here comes baby boy walking right in eating some hay off the floor. He was not intimidated by us at all, ignored our yelling, and finally responded when the wife threw and empty 5 gallon bucket at him. 5 minutes later he was fight back in the barn. I had some 12 gauge rubber buckshot that I bought a while ago for “game management” so I popped him in the butt twice with that. He trotted about 50 ft away and looked at me and started crying. Oh jeez, STOP THAT! I fired again which probably had little effect at that range but he started trotting off and we haven’t seen him since. That “little guy” probably weighed 600 lbs. and had hooves the size of footballs.
