I don't think it was that dangerous. Since the moose was in deep water it couldn't really kick or get on top of him.
Honestly, this was funny. I wouldn't have done it and I would have discouraged my friends from doing it, but it is still funny albeit a pretty big ####### move.
Of all the cruel things people do to animals, this doesn't even register. Just overly sensitive Internet warriors getting all excited over nothing. The moose wasn't harmed. Have you ever seen a horse being broken (we ride those, remember?)? It's much more dramatic and seemingly stressful for the animal. How about the Stampede? Steer roping? Bull riding? How many of you guys are going to get drunk and cheer those on in a couple of weeks?
Would you rather be a steer that gets lassooed multiple times a night all summer long, or this moose that some guy hopped on top of for 30 seconds and then lived out the rest of its life in its mountain paradise? I'm sure the guy hopped off the back of this moose and everybody went on their merry way after. It's not like he killed it for its antlers, which is something many don't seem to have a problem with.
