"SNIP......

After Buffett landed some kicks to the moose's forehead, the animal let him go and trotted off into the woods.

"I couldn't move after that," he said.

Paramedics made a three-kilometre trek through the bush to find Buffett. They called for help and a medevac helicopter came from St. John's to airlift him to hospital.

Buffett received stitches and staples to his head, hands and chest, but was otherwise intact. He was held in hospital for extensive testing over the weekend, but said he did not suffer a concussion or internal injuries.
