A moose almost did this to my stepmom is Yellowstone when I was a kid. it chased her around out far for 30 seconds before my dad was able to quickly open the door and snatch her in.
I’ve watched people get out of their cars and chase bears in the Smokies to get a photo. People are crazy. It’s amazing more people don’t die from bear attacks
Ironically chasing the bear is probably the safer option. It’s a predator so it will actually avoid wastes of calories. Prey animals will resort to “one or both of us is dieing here.”
I used to live in Alaska and people do the same around bears and moose. I think they have a feeling of “Animals won’t hurt me, I’m on vacation!”
