      The dog made a distraction big enough for the guy to escape the moose. It might had been a different kind of result if the moose had kept it’s focus on the guy.

      Big thumbs up for the dog and a thumbs up for it’s owner.

    I love that the dog’s only concern was saving his human and the guy’s main freakout was for his dog.

      When you live in a snow area it’s pretty common to run outside in shorts and a t shirt to grab something from your car

          He might have just wanted the large, padded pockets. When I was in high school, kids would wear a giant parka no matter the weather when they were carrying a gun.

          I just realized how dystopian that sentence is, sorry.

      People have a significant amount of adaptation to local temperatures just like most other animals.

      If you live somewhere where the temps change significantly throughout the year, have you ever noticed that 50F/10C feels chilly in in the autumn and warm in the spring? That is because the change from the norm is what we tend to notice, and if someone has been living where it has been freezing for months it can feel comfortable in the 30s and above.

      That dog doesn’t appear to have a coat, and really should because it is not adapted to the cold enough to have its body directly in the snow.
