A video has emerged from Algonquin Provincial Park in Canada of a moose saving her calf from drowning.
In the clip the mother and calf go for a swim in a lake when the calf suddenly becomes trapped on a fallen log.
The mother tries to reach her struggling offspring form the bank but can't quite get to it.
With time running out the mother moose swims out to the exhausted calf and manages to coax it to the bank where it eventually clambers to safety.
The remarkable moment was caught on camera in 2015 but has only recently come to light.
