On 23-May-2014 3 buddy's and I were mountain biking Kincaid park in Anchorage, AK when I moose charged us.

Luckily nobody got injured and the moose retreated after we disbursed. the still frames at the end let you see how close my friend actually came to getting tackled.

    Remember you do not need to run faster than the moose, just faster then your friend. Great video!

    Moose are beautiful yet terrifying creatures.

    I love how camera dude thinks the moose is turning to chase him so he runs behind his friend lol

    It appears that at one point the moose is wearing a GoPro and videos itself charging one of the bikers.

    Thanks for not harming the Moose! I'm glad no one was injured. So many sick individuals would have killed this magnificent creature, You all are good folks and responsible stewards of nature. Happy trails on your rides! Thanks again for not harming the Moose!

    How much do moose charge mountain bikers? Hikers usually around $3 peak season.
  • @geriea1281
    Wow were you able to get your bike after the moose moved ?

    Ive lived in AK almost all of my life. The only use I have for moose is dinner. I run into them nearly 80% of the time I am at Kincaid and am tired of being charged because they are too stupid to realize that people are not a threat to them. The Moose in Kincaid were born and raised there, and have no reason to fear people.

    Common theme I noticed in the comments from Alaskans is that this happens a lot, yet no one mentioned actually getting hurt. The point is in this case and in almost all cases the moose will bluff charge. We should take a lesson from the moose to live and let live.
