Saving a baby moose

Debra Easton and I had a big adventure on May 18 with a momma and baby moose! It began on Debbie’s birthday, May 14, when we arrived at the acreage to see a female moose 25 feet from the house. She slowly walked on to reveal a newborn baby in tow. The mother moved along and we didn’t see the pair for a few days until late Sunday afternoon. We were walking the perimeter checking the fencing and removing fallen trees. As we walked east we heard a strange sound and the crunching of breaking branches. There was the momma moose! We noticed a strange movement on the ground and looked closer. The baby was caught up in the fence. Debbie walked towards the baby to free her while I kept watch. I verbalized to the momma that we are here to help, she is beautiful, her baby is beautiful and we come in peace. I radiated love from my heart with immense intention and expansion. The momma stayed near and kept an eye on us but was not hostile towards us. We freed the baby’s leg but she didn’t walk or run away. The momma left and baby couldn’t walk. We were concerned about the baby being vulnerable to predators. So we moved closer and she let us pick her up! We drove her to the Alberta Institute of Wildlife Conservation. We are hoping her injuries are minor so she can be brought back to the acreage soon and reunite with her momma.
