Two Colorado women had the encounter of a lifetime this weekend, when they were both trampled by a bull moose. Jacqueline Boron and Ellen Divis were hiking near the city of Black Hawk early Sunday morning. They had their dogs with them, but this was not enough to scare away the charging moose. Within a matter of seconds, Boron was knocked unconscious and injured badly. Divis was able to get away with minimal damage and phoned rescue services immediately. Doron was taken to the hospital and ended up with four broken rips, eight staples in her head, two broken wrists, and about 20 stitches in her legs. A word of advice from Boron is "Don't hike when you know there's moose out there." Such educated and powerful advice should be taken seriously.
