BIG SKY, Mont. -- Two men in Montana are lucky to be alive after a moose charged at them, despite ignoring warnings from residents to leave the animal alone.

However, they didn't listen.
The video shows one of the men mocking the neighbor's concern and making gestures at the moose.
"It's a God damn wild animal, get the f*** away from it," the man is heard yelling in the video.
