A team of forest rangers in New York state have rescued a moose who became trapped in an icy lake. New York conservation officials say a passerby reported seeing the moose fall through into the lake in a forested area near the Vermont border,

The bull moose had fallen into a lake in the Adirondacks and been in the frigid waters for about two hours before rescuers arrived and used a chain saw to free it.

"There’s no training manual on how to get a moose out of the ice," said one of the DEC officers involved in the rescue.
