Two twin calves, one barrier, a stranger stepped in

A man carried a stranded moose calf across Highway 97 near Prince George, British Columbia, last week after the newborn got trapped in the road's concrete median. A mother moose had tried to lead her twin calves across the busy highway. She made it. They did not, stuck behind a barrier too tall for newborn legs. Traffic began to back up as drivers noticed the animals, according to motorist Sandie, who filmed the scene. The mother waited on the far side, watching. One calf eventually scrambled over the barrier on its own. The second stayed put, the way a frightened newborn does when the situation calls for a plan it does not have. Duane Hogberg approached, lifted the small moose over the median, and carried it across to its mother. Video shows the family reunited. Hogberg set the calf down, and the rest was up to the moose.
