Man uses bear spray on moose for seemingly no reason.<\/p>\n
The popular Instagram page @touronsofnationalparks recently shared a video that has to be seen to be believed.<\/p>\n
A man was filmed shockingly close to a pair of moose, and that’s when he decided to start slinging some bear spray at the massive wild animals.<\/p>\n
A witness claimed the man was “pissed” that he was unable to take a morning walk due to the location of the moose.<\/p>\n
A level of stupidity that is hard to comprehend. Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.<\/p>\n
People might not think moose are incredibly dangerous animals, but that thought could get you seriously hurt.<\/p>\n
Moose are gigantic. A bull can easily weigh more than 1,000 pounds, and they will absolutely get aggressive if they feel threatened.<\/p>\n
Good luck fighting a wild animal that is five times your size. Even if they won’t tear you apart like a grizzly bear, a moose will still do a ton of damage.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, why would anyone ever instigate a situation with an animal out in nature? It’s one thing if you have to take defensive measures because your life is in imminent danger.<\/p>\n
It’s a completely different situation if you decide to approach a wild animal.<\/p>\n
