STRANDED MOOSE RESCUED FROM FROZEN LAKE
A terrified moose, trapped in a frozen lake, bobs her head above the icey water and awaits her rescue. Weighing nearly 36 stone, the female moose was lucky to survive after she slipped through the ice that formed over Muncho Lake in northern British Columbia, Canada. The moose was rescued by travellers, truck drivers and locals after they spotted the animal's head bobbing above the ice.
