A moose was recently spotted running down the slopes of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming.
ABC News captured the incident in a video shared yesterday.
According to USA Today, the moose encounter was filmed by skier Kenny Rynearson.
The moose eventually veered into the woods after running alongside the skiers.
To Jackson out-of-towners, this might look like a shocking video.
However, moose are commonly spotted residents of the Jackson, Wyoming, area. One local in the comments section of this video went as far as calling them "pests" due to their frequent appearances slopeside and elsewhere.
As for the "pest" remark—it's kind of true, but moose aren't thriving like, say, squirrels in the Jackson, Wyoming area. You won't spot one on every ski run or street corner. The Wyoming Wildlife Advocates report that the moose population around Jackson has declined to only 276 herd members. Previously, they numbered between 1,000 and 3,000.
What if you do run into a moose, though? Don't fret too much—they aren't generally considered aggressive animals. However, due to their size—moose can weigh up to 1,600 pounds—they can inflict considerable damage should they choose to do so. Thus, wildlife experts recommend that you give moose a wide berth.

Justin Fields Called 'Biggest Loser' In Jets Training Camp
The New York Jets opted to cut Aaron Rodgers and sign Justin Fields to replace him during the offseason. This kind of commitment to Fields should bolster his confidence, but it could also place a lot of pressure on his shoulders. To this point, Fields has looked solid in training camp, aside from a scary toe injury that was quickly resolved in July. Justin Fried of the Jet Press recently reported that Fields' training camp may have reached a new low over the weekend as the young signal caller struggled. "Justin Fields put together his best practice of the summer to this point on Friday, completing his first 12 passes en route to an excellent all-around performance. The same can't be said about his showing on Saturday, however," Fried wrote. "Fields finished the day an abysmal 2-of-10 in the air, including a drop from rookie tight end Mason Taylor. "Some of his incompletions were catchable balls, but the Jets' passing game struggles on Saturday can largely be blamed on No. 7. Fields did flash his running ability with a 25-yard rushing score on the first play of red-zone drills, but the Jets would like to see more consistency in the air from the starting quarterback. Saturday's scrimmage was far from his best showing of the summer." Fields is a runner first at the NFL level, but his arm is nothing to scoff at. For most of training camp, his arm talent has been better than advertised, but during Saturday's scrimmage, it just wasn't there. A 2 for 10 performance is unacceptable for a $40 million quarterback who was signed to take over the team. The running game should open up the passing game for the Jets, which is going to need to be the case if Fields is going to struggle like this. However, it's just one day of camp. It's nothing to be too concerned about. Just because Fields lost this specific practice doesn't mean he's heading in the wrong direction as a whole.
Troubling update emerges about Joel Embiid’s health
Joel Embiid’s trust in the healing process may not be paying off. A concerning update emerged over the weekend about the health of the Philadelphia 76ers star center. Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints reports that there is “genuine concern” around the league about the health of Embiid’s knee. Siegel adds that Philadelphia’s camp is attempting to downplay the concerns but notes that “word is bad” about Embiid’s health around the rest of the NBA. Now 31, the former MVP Embiid is still dealing with the ill effects of a torn left meniscus suffered during a 76ers game in February 2024. Embiid, who previously tore the same left meniscus back in 2017, quickly underwent surgery on the knee and missed two months. It appeared that everything was peaches and cream for Embiid after he returned to finish out the 2023-24 NBA season and even played at the 2024 Paris Olympics last summer as the starting center for Team USA. But Embiid missed significant time while managing his left knee throughout the 2024-25 season and even suggested at one point that he would need to have another surgery. In the end, Embiid appeared in just 19 total games for the 76ers last season and was shut down in February with the team nowhere close to contention. There was some talk a few months ago that Embiid might be undergoing the Kobe Bryant treatment to address the troublesome knee, but it looks like Embiid still hasn’t found a course of treatment that his knee is responding to. We know that the 76ers were already growing frustrated with Embiid’s lack of availability going back to last season. Now they may have to prepare for the potential of Embiid missing more time in 2025-26, a disastrous possibility given that they still owe the seven-footer an absurd $187.6M over the next three seasons.
'Superman' VOD Home Streaming Date Confirmed and It's Shockingly Soon
In a move that seems faster than a speeding bullet, the new 2025 Superman movie will be available to watch at home just over a month after it hit theaters on July 11. According to multiple outlets, including World of Reel, the new Superman reboot movie will be available for video-on-demand (VOD) purchase starting very soon. In fact, the movie will almost certainly still be in theaters when you can watch it at home. Superman Streaming/VOD release date DC Studios' Superman, directed by James Gunn and starring David Corenswet, will be available for purchase digitally starting on August 15, 2025. This means that just over 30 days after its first theatrical release, the new Superman is coming home. To be clear, this is not the same as streaming on HBO Max, but it does mean you'll be able to pony up a certain amount of money (close to the price of two movie tickets) to watch the movie at home. Purchase of VOD movies generally happens on iTunes, Amazon, and other platforms. DC vs. Marvel VOD releases If this home video release seems quick, it is. For comparison, the last two Marvel superhero movies had nearly two months, not one, between theatrical release and VOD release. Thunderbolts* hit theaters on May 2, and was on VOD on July 1. Meanwhile, Captain America: Brave New World was in theaters on February 14, and on VOD on April 15. Both of those films were deemed, in the eyes of box office pundits, to be failures, while Superman is generally considered to be a success.

Insider Reveals Big Reason for Jackson Powers-Johnson's Position Change
Heading into the offseason, it seemed like Jackson Powers-Johnson had an iron grip on the Las Vegas Raiders' starting center job. That was his best position in college, and he took over the job from Andre James last season. However, in recent weeks, Jordan Meredith has been taking much of the first-team reps at center, while Powers-Johnson is starting to play more guard. The Raiders had a mock game on Saturday, and Meredith was the starting center, and Powers-Johnson was starting at right guard. That was the biggest sign yet that the Raiders might be leaning toward Meredith for starting center. Raiders Reportedly Like Powers-Johnson at Guard When the Raiders drafted Powers-Johnson last offseason, they drafted him to play guard. He started the season there, but eventually took over at center due to an injury to James. This led to the expectation that he'd be starting at center this season. According to The Athletic's Tashan Reed, the move to guard might be more of a strategic thing than a referendum on his performance. "Powers-Johnson starred at center in college, spent all of OTAs at center and has made it clear he prefers to play the pivot, but the Raiders believe his ceiling could be just as high at guard, according to team sources. He started multiple games at guard last year," Reed wrote. Kolton Miller Doesn't Think This Will Be a Problem Powers-Johnson clearly would rather play center, but the Raiders don't have the strongest offensive line right now. If Meredith is comparable at center to Powers-Johnson, but the latter is a big upgrade at guard, then Las Vegas is going to put together their best five-man unit. Left tackle Kolton Miller is a big believer in Powers-Johnson and thinks he'll thrive at any spot. “Regardless of if it’s center or guard, physicality, emotion, a finish to him,” Miller told reporters Thursday. “He’s so dynamic. Having a lot of the guys be able to do both is big. So, wherever he’s placed, he makes a big impact. … Wherever he’s placed, watch out.”
