Some hikers in Canada’s Jasper National Park stumbled upon a bear and a moose at the same time while walking on a trail known for moose sightings. It’s like they got a two-for-one special.

“Bear vs Moose. Who wins? Wait for it,” wrote Wendy and Jeffrey of tworobertsroaming on Instagram. They credit their son Jake for taking the video.

In the footage, the bear briefly charges in the direction of the moose, which is in the lake. The moose moves fast to get out of there. Then, the bear enjoys a peaceful swim in the lake all by itself.
