My wife is in ICU because of that moose. 18 broken ribs and on a ventilator. She just got out of surgery. I live one house away from where they killed it. Why did they kill it? Because it attacked another woman. I was out watering my lawn and I heard someone yell Help me! Help me! I ran to the trail and helped distract the moose until the woman could escape from behind some trees. She'd been stomped and was in shock. Fish and Wildife came, and it charged them. As for my wife, go to gofundme.com and search for moose attack victim. She wasn't distracted, she wasn't careless. What happened to her would have happened to the next person to walk by, be it adult or child. Where she was attacked was just feet from the main road. It's easy to say she should have seen it, or she should have done this or that. It saddens me that there are so many people with so many armchair opinions, and so little compassion for a beautiful lady who almost lost her life.
