    WARNING GRAPHIC FOOTAGE/SOUNDS - NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART/SQUEAMISH
    August 18, 2022 - a wedding ceremony was taking place on the shore of Two Medicine Lake in Glacier National Park, when most of the way through the groom's vows, a grizzly charged out of the brush onto the north shore and attacked a moose calf as the mother looked on. We had spotted the moose and calf 10 minutes before moving briskly through the forest further up the mountain - the bear must have been chasing them for at least a little bit.

    Groom here. This was such a wild and incredible experience that even now we are in awe. We chose to elope in the heart of nature at Glacier and knew what we were getting into. Always respect nature and wildlife. We’re thankful everyone is safe, and Stanton was able to capture this or no one would ever believe us!

      It's call survival.
      Cows and bulls can try to outrun an attack from a predator, bulls however have antlers that could be used in defense. I am not sure if they're known to use them outside of mating season related activities/territorial behaviors.
      It's a sad thing for sure but it's the circle of life. That bear with not be the only one benefiting from that kill.
