Info from Licensor: "My husband Jens Klaar and I were taking our Lowe riverboat out on the Stormy Lake near Soldotna, Alaska on September 26, 2019. We were sport fishing for rainbow trout and pike. My husband, who guides hunting professionally, recognized a bull moose swimming in front of us. We drove up slowly with our dog Duke, a three-year-old springer/beagle mix, who watched carefully from the bow. He was excited and shaking, but quiet as he is when we are hunting for grouse. We tried to film as closely as possible, but not too close so as to upset the bull moose. It was the day after moose hunting season and he had crossed quite a distance before we saw him, 300-400 yards. Quite memorable!"
