A woman and her dog were attacked by a moose on Wednesday, and the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Department is investigating into the incident.
A lady was assaulted by a cow moose while she was walking her dog on the South Saint Vrain Trail, which is located north of the hamlet of Ward, which is located outside of Boulder. The incident was reported to the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Department. The moose assaulted the victim by stepping on her many times and headbutting her.
It has been stated that the unnamed lady walked to the home of a neighbor, where she called the police, and was then transported to a nearby medical facility after making her report. The authorities have not made any statements on the seriousness of her injuries. The woman alleges that she had her dog on a leash at the time of the event, which resulted in the dog sustaining injuries.
After the incident, those in charge of animal conservation searched high and low but were unable to locate the moose. At the beginning of the walk, there was a set of cautionary warnings just in case any visitors ran across an irate moose.
