Bizarre moment Alaskan moose shakes off his ANTLERS and runs off...

An Alaskan moose shook off his antlers and ran off without them. 

The bizarre moment was caught on the doorbell camera of Alaska residents Tyra and Chance Bogert. The couple were not expecting to get a notification from their doorbell camera while they were out and about, nor did they expect to see a moose shed its antlers.

In the doorbell video, which has been viewed nearly 19million times, the animal stands still for a long moment before it shakes its head like a dog, causing its antlers to fall off.

The animal seemed frightened by the moment, running off to the other side of the yard, leaving behind a piece of himself.

'He scared the crap out of himself, that's for sure, he took off running the other way,' Tyra told Alaska's New Source

It is not uncommon for moose to shed their antlers, as they often do annually, but it is rare for both of them to fall off at the same time. 

The antlers put together measure just short of 51 inches wide, according to the Bogert's, who measured them in a separate video. 

The antlers are so big, their three-month-old son Thrasher, can fit perfectly in the large part of it.  

They plan to mount the antlers in their home, according to Newsweek.
