⁣A man was charged at by a moose in Big Sky, Montana, on March 29, after ignoring warnings from locals to leave the animal alone. Video recorded by Jason Holfensperger shows a group warning two men to move away from the moose. Holfensperger told Storyful the men were tourists visiting the area. The two men mock the local group's concern and slowly approach the moose. Holfensperger told Storyful that he was trying to communicate to the tourists that the animals can become aggressive when startled. "It's a god damn wild animal, get the f*** away from it," Holfensperger is heard saying in the video. The two men scoff at the concern and slowly shuffle towards the animal while taunting Holfensperger. "A little closer, a little closer," one of the men says, while approaching the animal. After one of the men touches the animal, the moose turns towards him and begins to charge. The man falls over and begins to scramble away, falling over again on the icy surface. Holfensperger said that neither men appeared injured following the charge, not accounting for potential "bruised egos".
