In a heartwarming rescue, a baby moose in Alaska was saved from certain danger after it fell into Beluga Lake and became wedged between a floatplane and a dock. The incident occurred last week in Homer, Alaska.

Spencer Warren, an employee of Destination Alaska Adventure Co., arrived at Beluga Lake around 6:30 am on Friday when he heard a noise that he initially Mistook to be that of a bird, as reported by the Associated Press. However, upon investigation, he discovered the distressed cry was coming from a moose calf which had become trapped between the floats of the plane and the dock.

With concern for the calf's safety, Warren was cautious about approaching the distressed calf as the mother moose and another calf were nearby, creating a potential hazard. The desperate young moose repeatedly tried to escape from the water, but its hooves could not secure a grip on the metal floats designed for planes to land and take off in the water.

Recognizing the need for professional help, Warren contacted his boss, who promptly called the Homer Police Department. Upon their arrival, one officer used their police cruiser to block the path of the mother moose, while another officer joined Warren in the rescue efforts. Despite the calf's leg being stuck on the plane's float, the rescuers skillfully managed to pull the moose safely from the water.

Warren expressed relief that the calf did not move during the rescue, facilitating the process. They gently lifted the moose out of the water and onto the dock. To ensure a successful reunion, an officer assisted the calf in standing up on the boardwalk, watching as it joyfully reunited with its mother.

Homer police Lieutenant Ryan Browning expressed satisfaction at the outcome, stating, "Anytime you can rescue a little critter, it always makes you feel good." The successful rescue not only saved the baby moose's life but also served as a reminder of the dedication and resourcefulness displayed by individuals coming together to protect wildlife.

The heartwarming story of the baby moose's rescue serves as a testament to the importance of swift action and collaboration in safeguarding the well-being of vulnerable animals. Thanks to the efforts of the dedicated rescuers, this little moose is now safely back with its mother, ready to continue its journey in the Alaskan wilderness.
