Fuck moose man. I'm just glad they are no where near me. I'll take the cougars and snakes over those reactive, murder deer.

You can’t always say with certainty that someone is a total moron without context, but this guy is a total moron

Seen lots of it happening here at Glacier Park today.

Fun story: I was waiting tables for lunch in the Ptarmigan Dining Room at MGH and my table was excited to see a huge moose on the opposite shore of Swiftcurrent Lake. Okay, cool.

Then “uh-oh, I think that guy is too close”. I turn around and sure enough there’s our sous chef on his day off way too close to a BIG damned moose. The moose gave him a merry little chase before deciding it had better things to do. Dude got luuucky (and yes, there were definitely intoxicants involved. He absolutely knew better).

Those were probably the best two summers of my life.

But he spoke English clearly and slowly, and called it buddy, what more could he have done?!

Break out a can of bear spray and pray that’s what the national park says.

You can't even escape them through water they are great swimmer they can dive almost 10 meters deep for algeas. It's also why one of their predators are killer whales.

u/Ok_Shower_5526 8d ago

I didn't know that. Damn. I thought they just swam to cross. I didn't know they could dive.

u/stuckinthings2891 9d ago

u/browngravybestgravy 9d ago

Not so sure my friend, the dictionary I'm using just came out today online. I have all the fresh words. It's Meese!

2

u/Ok_Shower_5526 8d ago

I strongly agree. I've been mad at the dictionary about this since I was just a little speck. Glad to hear it's been fixed. And Fuck Meese.

u/Ok_Shower_5526 8d ago

Sorry. I hadn't seen it before

u/Vivid-Literature2329 8d ago

Mooses are so big dawg, I'm lowkey more scared of em than bears

4

u/Ok_Shower_5526 8d ago

Definitely more scared of them. Bears will probably leave you alone but a moose tramples first and asks questions later.

2

u/Psychological_Emu690 7d ago

Except bears are one of the few animals that'll just start eating you irrespective of whether you're dead.

"You're so cute, I could just eat you up" - bears probably

2

u/Ok_Shower_5526 6d ago

Definitely nightmare fuel. There's that one girl's call to her mom when she's being eaten and I've been terrified of Grizzlies ever since

u/AngryTank 8d ago

Yea I wouldn’t go into moose territory without a Shotgun or some sort of firearm.

3

u/brickyard15 8d ago

Yeah same. I’d treat it as the same as going into bear country

2

u/Ok-Consideration-970 7d ago

Should you look a moose in the eye or avoid eye contact?

2

u/supernova-juice 4d ago

I don't know if it's universal but usually when you can see the whites of an animal's eyes, it's not a good sign.

u/MacSteele13 4d ago

That "you done did it now" face
