Instead this happened . . .

Kretschmer then tried to wait the moose out as it stared at him through the bushes. Eventually, he attempted to get back up and pick up his bike, but the moose came after a second time, chasing Kretschmer into the bushes himself. <\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, the moose eventually left, and Kretschmer remounted his bike and rode away. He says in the video that he was very sorry for the moose, and that he didn\u2019t want to hurt or scare it.<\/p>\n<p>See the viral video of a moose attacking a dirt biker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DZxq23tuAP8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Header stock image by Colleen Gara\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Henri Kretschmer recently shared a video of a moose attacking him while he was riding a dirt bike&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":106694,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[17,37917,37918,37919,37920],"class_list":["post-106693","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-canada","tag-canada","tag-dirt-biking","tag-moose","tag-moose-attack","tag-wildlife-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106693","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=106693"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106693\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/106694"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106693"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=106693"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=106693"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
