Moment Brave Moose Dives Off A High Cliff And Casually Swims Away Unharmed And Unfazed
Animals frequently surprise us with astonishing displays of stunts and twists that make us wonder if they were injured in the process. But, in all seriousness, animals are far more adaptable and resilient than we can imagine, so we can only sit back and enjoy such a display of feats.
Their lighter weight allows them to be more flexible for twists, turns, and stunts. The moose is an example of such a flexible and resilient animal.
You will get to see an unusual video of a fearless moose taking an unthinkable dive off a cliff in Newfoundland, Canada. The scene unfolded in front of some boaters, who videotaped this priceless moment.
Alyssa Hewlett was out fishing in Nippers Harbor when she noticed the young moose climbing a cliff. She had no idea what the massive animal was going to do, so she began filming the event right away.
But then the moose got too close to the edge of the rocks, lost its balance, and fell into the water, leaving everyone wondering what had happened or if the moose had landed safely.
The boaters nearby feared the worst, believing the animal had died from the jump or had collided with a rock. They were concerned because the animal fell from a high point of the cliff, crashing into the water.

"Oh no, is she gone?" the person filming the event was heard saying. But then the animal surprised them all by swimming away as if nothing had happened.
Alyssa Hewlett went on a fishing trip in Nippers Harbor when she spotted the young moose.
"Woo, I'm rooting for you, buddy! You're such a tough moose," the woman said. After falling from such a high cliff, this brave moose surprised everyone around the water with its resilience.
Although the moose appeared to be in grave danger to everyone watching the video, Dr. Ronald Moen, a biology professor at the University of Minnesota, explained the contrary.
"Moose are excellent swimmers, and given how calm the water was, it could have found an access point to get back on land."
According to the professor, who also received the 2016 Distinguished Moose Biologist Award, the moose most likely walked down the cliff but was unable to climb back up. It could have been foraging, but there didn't appear to be much food around the cliff or in the water.
Moose are good swimmers, and given how calm the water was, it could have found a way back to land and possibly looked for food elsewhere.

These animals don’t fail to provide us with actions that spice up our days. It is truly rewarding, with abundant dopamine, to watch these animals display their tricks.
The funniest part is that they perform such stunts for a reason—mainly to catch prey—but we find them entertaining. In the end, a big thanks to those who devote their efforts and time to capturing these priceless scenes.
