Heavily inspired by @3blue1brown's video on the same subject; see youtube.com/watch?v=HEfHFsfGXjs.
Here two moose try to do the same with some initial struggling before finding the correct approach for the given problem, namely approximating pi by acting frictionlessly and colliding elastically towards themselves and a wall, where the incoming moose subsequently increases its mass by 100^x, x = 1, 2, ..., assumed that the initially stationary moose has mass 1. The heavier the incoming moose becomes, the better pi will be approximated.
Music by @gpcbass. The song is named Moose Pie, and includes real drums.
Python & FFmpeg.
