With the help of a couple of men from Timmins a moose is now moving freely in the bush. Last Wednesday, a friend had called prospectors Maurice Valliere and Pat Greba to come out to the bush, north of the northeastern Ontario city, where a male moose had become stuck in mud. Before attempting the rescue, the men says they tried contacting the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, Natural Resources and Forestry, but no one responded. Valliere said if he and his friend hadn’t helped the moose, it would have perished. “He was buried right up to his head … he was fighting, and fighting, and fighting just to keep his head out of the mud.” …They used the strength from an Argo ATV to pull the heavy animal out of the mud using the straps. …The two men don’t consider what they did heroic or anything special.
