Russian Driver Scares Bear Off From Wild Moose Chase

A moose was filmed cantering down the road in central Russia, followed by a brown bear that was scared off by a honking car.

The video uploaded on social media Monday evening shows the moose running from the bear down an empty road in Khanty-Mansiisk autonomous district.

Further in the distance, the brown bear can be seen stopping in its tracks and escaping from the honking car into the woods.

Readers broke into two camps: those who blamed the video’s authors for leaving the bear hungry and those who applauded them for saving the moose.

Brown bears emerge from months of hibernation in mid-spring.

… we have a small favor to ask. As you may have heard, The Moscow Times, an independent news source for over 30 years, has been unjustly branded as a "foreign agent" by the Russian government. This blatant attempt to silence our voice is a direct assault on the integrity of journalism and the values we hold dear.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. Our commitment to providing accurate and unbiased reporting on Russia remains unshaken. But we need your help to continue our critical mission.
