The sight of hulking moose isn’t uncommon in the region around Unalakleet, an Alaska town on the coast of the Bering Sea. But Brad Webster had never seen moose like this before. The two bull moose were lying on their sides, apparently locked in a fight to the death, and now perfectly preserved in 20 centimetres of ice. Hundertmark said the only ones he’s seen are skulls of conjoined moose found in the wild – but not in ice. “These two fellows were unfortunate in that they probably fell into the water while locked together and drowned,” Hundertmark said.
