I did not see this

Here it is.

WARNING - IT IS GRAPHIC - SHOWS A MOOSE BEING SHOT BY A HANDGUN NUMEROUS TIMES.

I personally feel terrible for the moose - the situation could have been avoided.

Again - it's graphic - if you don't think you can handle it, don't click 'play' on the video.

I'm no expert but I can't help but feel had the guy had some patience the whole thing could have been avoided. He could have possibly backed up and waited for the moose to wander off for example.

Beyond that - let's say he did have to put it down... The least he could have done is finish it off with a clean shot so it didn't suffer until it died.

It's my understanding that snowmobile cannot back up just like motorcycles.

Ok - then he could have simply stopped advancing on it once he saw it rather than yelling at it and continuing to advance.

If he stopped and it came at him then I can see it but he continued to advance.

Point is - I still think it could have been avoided but I'm just armchair quarterbacking.

I'm not judging him - I just feel sorry for the moose.

Although I do kind of feel sorry for the moose, I can kind of understand why he did it. Moose are actually really dangerous. My sister lives in New Hampshire and they are everywhere apparently. They get pretty territorial at times too. There are constantly people being hurt by them. If the guy had stopped and sat there when he first spotted it and waited instead of yelling, the moose may have done a full on charge. Bad, bad, bad thing. By closing some of the distance he was protecting himself. The less distance, the less force behind the charge. And I also noticed that when he finally did fire, the first shot missed the moose. The guy was probably firing a shot to see if he could scare it off (I wasn't there so it's just speculation on my part). The moose still approached. Guy did what he had to do. We like to think of moose as these gentle majestic beings. Majestic, yes. Gentle, oh hell no. I would have done the same thing. Those things can be seriously vicious
