A Jamestown woman was gardening when a moose attacked her, another woman and a dog earlier this month, and the incident has prompted renewed calls from Colorado Parks and Wildlife for people to be wary of the large animals.

“The woman and dog were in their own backyard, minding their own business and not doing anything wrong when this occurred,” Area Wildlife Manager Larry Rogstad said. “But even if you are not in the wilderness, sometimes the wildlife comes to you.”

Linda Lund, 64, told a Boulder County sheriff’s deputy that she was gardening on June 2 when she heard her dog barking. She turned and saw the moose — which had two calves with it — attacking her dog, and it attacked her when she ran toward her house, according to a police report.

The CPW stated in a news release that the moose “began stomping on” Lund.

Irene Rickortt, 60, who was inside the home, came outside upon hearing Lund screaming and was also attacked by the moose, which left the area after one of its calves ran away.
