Colorado Parks & Wildlife save moose trapped in zip line

Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers helped rescue a trapped moose stuck in a zip line last week.

Officials post the video of the large trapped animal to their official Twitter page Tuesday.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife captioned the video saying they tranquilized the moose and were able to free it. They say upon further investigation, they discovered the nearby homeowner had placed a salt block outside in order to attract wildlife.

It was not exactly clear where this incident happened, but we’re told the homeowner was cited for violating the law.
