Man Boxed In by Bull Moose

An Alaska man was minding his own business taking out his trash when he was surprised by the largest member of the deer family.

The incident was captured on Curtis Phelps’ home security camera below. 

Moose can quickly turn on you, so it’s alway best to keep your distance if you encounter them. They have few natural enemies in the wild and are therefore less fearful of humans compared to other big game. They will approach humans and homes out of curiousity, but they are also protective of their territory and young. Check out these guidelines from Colorado Parks and Wildlife on how to avoid and minimize dangerous moose encounters.
