Meh, we had moose wander our neighborhood all the time in Eagle River. We just didn't bother them and they left you alone. My brother ran into one when we were chasing him around the house, scared the moose more than it did him.

Momma was kinda trapped in that area by the fence with her kids though, not a good idea to try and ride by her like that.


A momma moose with calves is not something you want to encounter. It's not a pleasant experience. We came upon a mom and calf in Yellowstone and you could just see from her body language that we needed to get the frick out of there ASAP.

Yeah it can turn bad very quickly. Most of the time you're safe but putting yourself in that situation is not a good idea.

I believe it's not the first time that particular moose went after bikers. They had issues during a triathalon too
