Moose Reroutes Dogsledding Couple

📽 by Breno Fiamma

Submitted (in quotes) with the following explanation:
"We were dog sledding outside of Park City Utah and a moose was on the trail that we were on. The moose tried stomping the dogs and came after us. The trip was an in and out trip - we saw the moose on the way in on a ridge and when we came back it was waiting for us on the trail."

Moose have a problem with dogs, because moose have no idea what dogs are. They see a medium to large canid and their brain automatically sees "wolf". In this case, a group of "wolves". They crazy thing is, if that was a group of wolves, the moose is probably screwed - but it still went at them which is probably not the smartest move, but I would be lying if I said it wasn't extremely ballsy.

As far as I know, all of the dogs and their owners were fine. Same goes for the moose.
