If you and the family are planning on heading up north this summer to explore the Utah wilds there is one creature, you’ll want to especially watch out for; a moose. Though the huge non-predatory creatures may seem harmless, they are quite aggressive when they feel threatened. I’m not sure about you but getting chased by a moose is pure nightmare fuel for me. Which is why the Utah Department of Natural Resources is warning adventurous Utahn’s to steer clear of these guys.

I've never been much of a gambler. OK, maybe a little bit when I was younger and driving in Seattle. But here's the deal, those few times I have gambled, I didn't win. At this point in my life, if I go to a casino, I'll take out a $20 bill, sit down at a blackjack table and play until it's gone. I like playing blackjack, I'm not very good at it, but it's kind of fun.
