Drone Footage Captures Showdown Between Wolf and Moose

Moose have been on the menu of wolves for many thousands of years, but no offensive bloody scenes here.

Cow moose almost waist deep in a lake and just out from shore.

Typically, a moose is going to have the advantage in water. If it had been on land and injured, the odds would start to favor the wolf against a cow or young one, but not a bull moose. In a pack, whole different story, though. Thanks for posting!

As the post above states, it's pretty unusual for a wolf to attack in water, and that's pretty deep water for such and endeavor. How the wolf hung on through all that thrashing in the water is amazing.

That wolf got real baptized there.
