Contrary to popular belief, moose are not gentle creatures that Canadians ride from ice hockey practice to poutine appointments. Moose are actually scary beasts who will not hesitate to fight you. Or, in this case, other moose.
Still not convinced that moose are absolutely terrifying beasts? Watch the above video, shot in a suburban Alaskan town, that shows two gigantic moose duking it out in a driveway. Bill Tyra and his son, Josh, captured this epic moose fight in South Anchorage, KTVA Alaska reports. (Right now is peak moose rutting season.)
Isn’t it crazy that moose actually exist in real life and not in some prehistoric fantasy novel?
