Elk rescued from the Bow River in Banff

A bull elk was rescued from the icy waters of the Bow River in Banff National Park on Wednesday.

Viewer video of the incident showed the animal had somehow fallen through the ice and into the water.

Parks Canada wildlife crews soon arrived on the scene and used a tow rope as well as a chain saw to help get the animal out of the water.

A Banff resident who took the video told CTV News that animal encounters are common in the community and wildlife officials are well trained to handle them. #shorts
