Also on Sunday, in Alaska, a man was killed as he tried to photograph newborn moose calves when their mother attacked

That mauling was one of at least two serious animal attacks on people in the US wilderness on Sunday. Elsewhere, in, a 70-year-old man who was attempting to take photos of newborn moose calves was attacked and killed by their mother, authorities said.

The female moose had recently given birth to the calves in Chorman’s home town of Homer. Chorman and another man were “walking through the brush looking for the moose … when the cow moose attacked Dale”, McDaniel said. That person did not witness the attack, so authorities cannot say if the moose killed Chorman by kicking or stomping him, or a combination.

There are as many as 200,000 moose in Alaska, a state with a human population of about 737,000. The largest of the deer family, a small adult female moose can weigh up to 800lbs , while a large adult male can weigh twice that, according to Alaska’s department of fish and game. The animals can stand almost 6ft tall.
