Moose Filmed Running Wild In Ontario, Canada

Spotting a wild moose in Canada is far from a rarity but seeing one run rampant through the streets of Ontario? That’s certainly not something that happens every day.

On Saturday night, a moose was filmed in the town of Sudbury without a care in the world. In fact, one motorist was even able to capture the moment the moose ran directly at a police car, perhaps understanding that it wasn’t welcome on the busy road.

Finding humor in the curious encounter, police took to Twitter to warn locals, posting “Please use caution as the moose is failing to follow direction by police and may pose a risk to the public should the animal come onto the road.”

Shortly after, the moose, nicknamed Martha by police, wandered through a parking lot before leaving the area later that night.
