WATCH: Massive Moose Charges, Kicks Woman In Head On Sidewalk

| | | 0 comments

An Alaskan woman was out for a walk with her dog when a charging moose ran up behind her and kicked her in the head, knocking her down.

“I thought someone had not been paying attention and hit me with a bike or something,” Tracy Hansen told KTUU. “I had put my hands up to my head, and I’m like, ‘I’m bleeding.’”

Hansen had apparently spotted the moose earlier in her walk and didn’t think much of it at the time.

“Knowing that the moose had been somewhere behind me, and now here this moose is in front of me, and I’m like ‘Was that the moose?'” she continued.

Her dog wasn’t injured in the attack that was captured on video by passerby, Kate Timmons.

Timmons was riding by with her husband, who was driving the car, when they noticed a moose was walking up behind someone.

They began recording the encounter and attempted to warn Hansen after the moose started charging, but it was too late to react.

The couple pulled over and rushed to help once they saw what happened.

“My husband was able to help pull her over the snow bank, so we could get her in the truck with her dog and kind of get her out of the way,” Timmons said. “It happened so fast it was just like, a matter of getting her out of the situation, getting her help.”

Help came at the right time for Hansen and while she’s beat up, she’s expected to make a full recovery.

Despite the the attack, Hansen doesn’t plan to stop her and her dog, Gunner’s, daily walks as a result of the attack.
