ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU/Gray News) – A lady in Alaska was started the head by a moose while walking her dog.

Tracy Hansen took her dog, Gunner, out for a walk on the very same course she usually does 3 times a day.

However, their 3rd walk on Feb. 16 took an extreme turn.

A moose all of a sudden charged behind Hansen while she was walking on the pathway near a car dealer prior to leaping over her and kicking her in the head.

“I thought someone had not been paying attention and hit me with a bike or something,” Hansen informed KTUU. “I had put my hands up to my head, and I’m like, ‘I’m bleeding.’”

It wasn’t up until she stayed up that Hansen understood the moose that she and her dog had actually strolled past previously was not in front of her.

“Knowing that the moose had been somewhere behind me and now, here this moose is in front of me, and I’m like, ‘Was that the moose?’” Hansen said.

KTUU likewise consulted with Kate Timmons, who was driving down the roadway with her family. Timmons saw the moose kick Hansen in the head and she and her family rapidly entered to help by diverting the moose far from Hansen and her dog.

“My husband was able to pull her over the snow bank, so we could get her in the truck with her dog and kind of get her out of the way,” Timmons said. “It definitely seemed unprovoked from our standpoint and it happened so fast it was just like, a matter of getting her out of the situation, getting her help, making sure, you know, my big thing was that she didn’t have a head trauma, that there wasn’t a bleed or something.”

Timmons said she was fretted about what might have taken place if her family didn’t witness the mishap and spring into action. Timmons kept in mind how high the snow banks were, which would have made it a battle for a passing car to see Hansen pushing the pathway.

Hansen said she was grateful she and Timmons crossed courses at the best minute.

“Kate and I were discussing that the Lord put her in the right place, at the right time to be able to help,” Hansen said.

On Monday, Gunner and Hansen were back walking on the very same course. Hansen said that Gunner was unimpaired, however she is still recuperating from staples in her head, headaches and bruising throughout her body, however that won’t stop their day-to-day regimen.

“We’ll be back on our normal walks,” Hansen said. “The moose won’t stop that.”
