In a winter full of stuck moose, another one was rescued on Easter Sunday in Fairbanks.
“I looked out the window here and right over there you could see this moose fighting for his life,” Niese said. “He was clearly unable to get out of the hole and was fighting with all his effort.”“Naturally when I heard the call come out on the radio about a moose that needed to be free from the ice, that sounded a lot more exciting than what I was doing at the time,” state trooper Trevor Norris said. “So me and the guys ran out there and used it as an opportunity to help out.
With assistance from local neighbors, Norris, Fairbanks resident Eric Dillon, and a handful of wildlife and state troopers worked as a team to help the moose from the ice. “Put another rope around one of the front legs and then we pulled the calf who was barely out of the hole,” Niese described. “Let it catch its breath and it was ready to give up at that point.”“With the coordinated efforts of all of us, we were able to pull the moose out,” Dillon said. “It was a feat, but it was exhilarating, exciting and a nice outcome to an unfortunate situation.”
The rescuers were thankful to have some help behind the scenes from other neighbors who assisted in the process. Once the moose could stand up, it didn’t want to leave them, they said.“Well now what are we going to do with you?” Niese asked about the animal.from Alaska State Troopers that says in part, although tired and cold, the moose was able to stand on its own and thankful for the assistance.
