If you're going to witness a moose street brawl, doing so from the comfort of your own vehicle a decent distance from the action is a good way to do it.
A viral video posted this weekend by Colorado meteorologist Joe Ruch shows two enormous bull moose going at it in the middle of the street. The fight is recorded from the comfort of a vehicle.

It's peak rutting season for moose in Colorado and locking antlers is a regular occurrence. What likely isn't a regular occurrence is one of the moose being slammed on the pavement.

The beginning of the video actually shows the end of the fight. It then switches to earlier in the action with the two tangled up before the eventual winner of the fight is briefly pushed down in the street.

As they go at, they end up on the side of a small hill. That's where the end of this fight begins. The two head back down towards the street and, as they pick up speed, one of them charges the other and that's when the slam takes place.

They continue to lock antlers until the downed moose gets back to its feet and runs off. It no longer wanted anymore of this fight. And, after being knocked to the street, you can't blame it.
