Still recovering from the adrenaline rush! Captured on film just moments ago:



The backstory regarding the above linked YouTube Video as just posted:
I was in my driveway loading winter tires into my vehicles when I heard a loud crashing sound and glanced up to see two huge Bull Moose charging up the driveway toward me.
I turned and ran for my life dropping the house key I was holding in the process. Fortunately the door remained unlocked. (I wasn’t so lucky earlier in the year when I had confronted a bear while I was watering the lawn.)

Above is the link to my video of their continued battle as I captured it from the safety of my deck. After retreating from my driveway, the two have become locked together with their horns.
Finally one spins the other to the ground where he pins him and holds his opponent in place to establish who is the victor. No effort is made to inflict injury. Both huge Bull Moose then amble away peacefully.
Horns Locked:

The Victor as he ambles away:

The key that I dropped as I raced to escape the charging Bull Moose:

Aftermath of the Battle as evidenced by tufts of ripped Moose hair and Moose horn scratches on my driveway along with some of the torn up grass:

Went back to check the security camera recording and located these scenes from when the Fighting Bull Moose were advancing up toward where I was positioned behind the vehicle on the left on the driveway:

Whoa, be careful up there Alaska. That is two a bit to close up close and personal encounters with the Alaska wildlife up there with the Bear and now the Moose. We need all the CAT fans we can get.
P.S. Maybe you can get a whole of the winner of the Moose fight and see if he has any eligibility left. We can use him next year for the OL.

Thankfully, the moose were not interested in you. Apparently, the loser of this battle was an Indiana fan, so I'm glad I'm heading out this Saturday to watch us battle the Hoosiers. What is a Hoosier anyway?

Here is the expanded TV feature as it aired on last night's late News.

Following an introduction to Fat Bear Week, the Nightly News TV anchors expanded their coverage of my just captured “on film” Bull Moose Fight at my house.

Well my Alaska friend, you've become a national celebrity all due to your excellent camera work and your participation on our chat board!

FWIW, the original YouTube Video has now been made into a "YouTube Short." Here is the "Short" version for any who want the "Cliff Notes" Version. (Is that even still a thing?)
