97 Pounds of Ass-Kicking Grandma

Taylor raced back to the truck but instead of jumping in for safety, she released the tailgate to look for something she could use. She grabbed a big grain shovel that they keep on hand to dig out if the truck gets stuck.

She walked back to the moose, making a racket with the shovel on the road, where the snow was hard-packed. She kept shouting for her husband to get over there and help.

Taylor took a swing at the moose and it backed off a little, but then it reared up and stomped its target again. It didn’t let up.

“She walked back to the moose.” Holy toads, that is one unbelievably brave human. Did we mention she’s 85? And that the moose was attacking her husband?

Wow. Go. Read. And thank the stars for grandmas.
