Baby moose need to cool off, too.

After spotting a family of moose in their yard in Alaska, Cory Williams of YouTube channel Dude Like Hella decided to turn on their sprinkler for the baby moose to play.

A few moments after turning the sprinkler on, the baby moose returns to the yard to check out the new waterpark. At first the moose calmly stood in front of the water spray, but soon it realized that it was much more fun to run and slide on the wet grass.

But this little moose isn't the first to play with a sprinkler. Just last June another family of moose were captured frolicking around another sprinkler in an Alaskan front yard.
