Occurred on January 8, 2023 / Soldotna, Alaska, USA
Info from Licensor: "I arrived home and saw the cow moose to the side. We have so much snow right now I could not see the calf so I walked myself between them which isn't a great spot to be in. I almost walked directly into the calf because I was watching the mom. It was when I attempted to jump the porch banister that the calf got up and we both ran. I dodged behind a trash can into the 4 feet of snow. The back door was not an option due to a privacy fence and deep snow. Once the calf ran off, I was able to go inside. The whole situation was maybe 10 minutes. Mom and calf ended up bedding down in the driveway for a few hours. Moose are just part of Alaska life!"
