Moose on the Loose

Occurred on February 27, 2022 / Alaska, USA

Info from Licensor: "I was driving down the road and as I came around a corner there was this big moose jogging down the road directly in front of me. I barely had enough time to slow down on the icy roads and came close to hitting it. I could not stop or pass it because I was afraid of traffic coming from both directions. It is extremely dangerous to stop on a blind corner. Especially with those road and weather conditions so I just followed her at the pace she was going hoping I could get around her before any more cars came around the corner! I started recording and she slipped and fell. When she got back up she lowered her head and her ears went back which are signs that a moose is about to charge. I was about to back up but when I looked in the review mirror I saw a car behind me and it was trying to stop before it rear-ended me. Right after I quit recording the moose hopped into the snow on the opposite side of the road and I saw my opportunity to get out of there safely but as I started to move she charged my car and got one kick-in before I drove off."
