A 'one-in-a-million' video captured by an Alaska couple's doorbell camera shows a bull moose shedding both antlers at once.
Tyra and Chance Bogert were amazed and surprised to see the "one-in-a-million" occurrence happen right beyond their doorstep. You see the moose walk into the frame from the left, he shakes like a dog trying to shed water and slightly bends over and — "pop" and "crack" — both his antlers snap off his head. The moose is obviously startled and hops and runs away.
The chances of catching something like this on video are pretty rare and to date, the couple says they have almost five million views after posting it on TikTok. The antlers were big, measuring 50 inches each. They say they now have a great story to tell their 3-month-old son Thrasher. They are going to have the antlers mounted. And that story? Well, they have the video to prove it.
