Hikers on Canadian forest trail surprised by giant moose (VIDEO)

Encountering a moose is often a rare and unforgettable experience. However, it's crucial to remember that these gentle giants are wild creatures deserving of utmost respect.

This week as part of our Village Wild video series, presented by Tourism Skillsnet North we're featuring a video link submitted by John from Sault Ste. Marie.

In the video, you can see a towering moose step out of the bushes and onto a trail in front of a group of hikers in Cape Bretton, Nova Scotia. 

The large moose can be seen getting close to hikers as it crosses the trail and continues on its way. It's truly amazing how something of that sheer size just goes into the woods and disappears without making a sound.

Encountering a moose is often a rare and unforgettable experience. Their mystique and majestic presence captivate the imagination, adding to their allure. However, it's crucial to remember that these gentle giants are wild creatures deserving of utmost respect.
