On the news I saw that the moose was looked at by wild life svcs, patched up a bit, then they actually went out and found the mother moose along with the sibling of the injured moose and the family was rejoined! What a nice ending!
That’s a rarity for WS. I’d like to know how often they actually make an attempt to locate the rest of a familial group in other cases.

Yes a rarity, but in this case the moose family had been around the area for a while so they sorta knew where to look, folks had been watching them for over a week.
