VIDEO: Giant MOOSE saved from frozen lake after falling through ice
A hero trio of forest rangers have saved a moose after it fell into a frozen lake.
Authorities rushed to the scene after receiving a report of a moose breaking through the ice.
A bystander had watched the animal walk onto the ice and fall into the freezing cold water.
Officers arrived and noticed the animal was unable to get out on its own, as reported by NeedToKnow.
Forest Rangers Nahor, Savarie and Baldwin quickly dressed in cold-water rescue gear and ventured out onto the ice.
Ranger Nahor began cutting a channel with his chainsaw while Lieutenant Higgins cleared the ice blocks, creating a pathway for the moose to free itself.
Rangers Savarie and Nahor then guided the moose to shallow water near the shore.
Once free from the water, the moose made several attempts to get up.
Eventually it stood up on the stable ice and walked off into the woods.
Acting Director of DEC’s Division of Forest Protection Drew Cavanagh said: “I applaud our Forest Rangers and ECOs on their coordinated and heroic efforts to rescue an animal that was clearly in distress.
“It’s a testament to the professionalism, resilience, and dedication of these two Police forces to New York’s natural resources and wildlife.”
The incident happened on 16 January at Lake Abanakee, New York, US.
The moose, later identified as a bull moose that had dropped its antlers, was reportedly in the frigid waters for approximately two hours.
Director of DEC’s Division of Law Enforcement Karen Przyklek said: “With little time to spare, our ECOs and Forest Rangers jumped into action without hesitation, braved the elements, and risked their own safety to rescue an animal in need.
“I’m proud of the work they’ve done to bring about such a positive outcome.”
DEC reminds ice anglers to be safe when venturing onto the ice this season.
They said: “Outdoor enthusiasts considering ice fishing should always be aware of essential safety guidelines and make sure ice is thick enough before heading out.”
