Within hours of being born, a muskox calf is ready to start exploring. Meanwhile, its mother keeps a careful eye on her newborn. Muskoxen were hunted to extinction in Alaska by 1860 but were reintroduced in the 1930s. There are now a few thousand in the state.

She’s so tiny compared to the adults…what an adorable fluffy little one.
I really need the chretiens and admyi off me
Um yeah it's a BABY,...smh.
@@jt1364 really ?
Normally their babies double their size when they are born, but this calf born differently
😅😅😅😮😅@@edyr
It's amazing how the calf can walk so good as soon as it's born! 😮
I was thinking just that. I've watched hundreds of documentaries about animals, and I don't think I'll ever not be impressed at how fast their newborns stand on their legs and start walking and running just minutes after being born. It's incredible to see every time!
@@okapi7559 A lot of these animals that are able to walk right after being born are usually carried for much longer than human babies. Some animals will carry their young for up to 24 months.
So well.
They have to in order to survive. Same as baby caribou.
@@seekinginfinityyeah, we know. It is no less impressive after your explaining.
Motherhood is motherhood no matter the species! Mom's rock .......patient, loving, kind, sensitive and so so protective!!!! Big cheers to moms!!!
Except where that species doesn’t take care of their young
@@languagetech2675 sorry to hear that!
...putting DVDs into DVD players ...
@@languagetech2675yeah, mine stuck around. Aaaaand she’s still here. But fuck if she hasn’t been a real peach half the time. The rock? Well yeah, that was my old man. Worked his ass off and dealt with all her bullshit just to make sure his kids had something solid to go off of. That’s what gave us solid ground, took care of us, gave love whenever it was needed, made us tough, imparted wisdom - a strong father.
So I definitely have a visceral reaction to the cliched trope of “all mothers are so strong and perfect” bs. Probably much like you do.
I know that you’re just talking about Great Moms in general so I second your beautiful words ❤❤💪
That calf has learned its first lesson... not to venture out too far into unknown territory. The mom was so patient and wise, not to get herself into the shallow ice.
And that ice is slippery!
Perhaps also that:s an instinct because I can not imagine such calf to just go wondering about without a reason. Animals are driven by instinct, especially in first days
What if the calf walks on that lake and it breaks the ice and ot falls in and drowns what a dum ass musk ox calf
A mum's life is hard 🙂
The ice was just one danger and not the first, the possible depth of the snow was the other.
The calf was much safer with the snow because it only weighs a fraction of the mother.
This is the most beautiful thing I've seen in my 40 years of life.
First time I've ever seen one, and I really hope it won't be the last!
How sad.
@@ClanToreadorha! Really. You think any of them actually really cried whenever they comment “literally shed tears”?
@@ClanToreadorMost beautiful thing I have ever seen was a 170 year old tortoise. Or is that not good enough for you either? 😅😂
@@ClanToreador How sad for you not to love nature, why watch a nature video if you don't?
People need to protect them by leaving them alone
They are left alone
YES!!
@@Sherlock245 Then why are they endangered?
@@Shivian124 cause their home is melting. And due to us and out consumption.
@@Sherlock245 Yes they were hunted to extinction in places is my understanding?
Life makes earth beautiful. Every life is precious.
I'm in awe my first video of the morning and this is what beauty I see if the wild! A new baby born. Hope she thrives
I have so much
admiration for these
animals, they live in
such a harsh climate
Every time I see animal babies like this, walking, eating and communicating from day 1 in their lives I'm puzzled how incredibly helpless, dependent and undeveloped our human babies are in comparison. It takes forever until we can do basic stuff and survive.
Yes. Then even as adults we mess up!
I heard one theory is that we are born earlier in our development because humans live in so many different climates/cultures; we can start adapting to our specific environments/food/climate sooner if we are born earlier in our development.
Homosapien parents are naturally evolved to care for newborns.
This should be instinctual.
But it seems to be lacking in quite a few these days.
There is good reason for most peoples reaction to a newborn, especially females.
It is instinctual.
What some people call compassion and empathy are actually instinctual inbred emotions that you are born with.
You aren't more compassionate than someone else.
Literally anyone on Earth has this emotional need to care for newborn babies.
But because female Homosapiens give birth, they tend to be more emotional about this.
@@TheErik249 What does anything you said have to do with slow development?
I wonder if the difference in development has anything to do with predator vs prey. We have no natural predators, but a baby muskox needs to know how to run right away. 🤷♀️
Such beautiful animals.
IN MY VIEW
This newborn baby has the sweetest face. 100% Precious.❤
Beautiful film. I was once able to stalk downwind of a family group of Musk Ox in Eastern Greenland. I sat against a boulder and they eventually grazed their way to within arms-length of me. An unforgettable encounter.
Would like to hear more. Did you feel you had to keep absolutely still? At any time were they aware of you?
@@broadcasttttable Unlike if I was stalking deer here in Scotland, no I didnt have to keep absolutely still. I suspect this is because I was in a remote area in Eastern Greenland and they simply didnt recognise my presence as threatening or possibly as a human. Interestingly however, in the very same area I accompanied a group of Inuit hunters. They couldnt stalk close enough to a family group to make clean kills. I dont know whether this means that I was simply better at stalking them or some other factor.
@@folkq I've always believed animals recognize intent. They knew the hunters were a threat, you were not. Thanks for the interesting, quick response.
@@broadcasttttable Its an interesting idea but I have no doubt that if I had been hunting that they would've walked right up to me anyway.
OMG, this tiny calf is so stinkin CUTE! Danger ... cuteness *overload* ... reaching critical mass cuteness!
I love the way the little cutie walks, and running into a trouble already 🤩
So tiny, but so fierce ❣️❣️❣️
Hi Lynn how are you. Greetings from California, Good video. Hope you’re safe from the covid. Have a good week and stay safe 😃😘 Scott
Fierce???
@@m.williams4971Yep, once you provoke them, they'll attack you and Most Certainly kill you In the name of self defense.
@@m.williams4971 Why watch nature videos if you hate them?
Huge respect for that mother❤️❤️❤️
Mother is the only creature in this who give all her possible service to her child. Nothing in return, no money, no salary. What a great adorable nature.
Correction: there is one other creature that does this and that is father.
@@pisces2569 Not my father :(
What a precious newborn. 😍
Mother and child.
Priceless.💞
Aww, just want to cuddle her.
Beautiful calf, intelligent mother and the nature at its cutest and at its hardest
That's a priceless video, just pure and beautiful
It is fantastic they are making a comeback and they're wool is used to make the lightest, warmest clothing - hats, scarves, shawls, headbands - their are only a few native women who know the process. A free catalog can be mailed to one from the Musk Ox farm in Alaska.
I once saw a video of someone shearing a muskox. Maybe it was from that farm. That was a huge undertaking. Impressive animals indeed.
I was starting to worry the calf would get into real danger or not be able to get up the bank of the gully.
Me too. I know it happens but.... I was really enjoying watching these magnificent, unfamiliar creatures... And then the bl***dy jeopardy wrecked it. Even though there was a fortunate outcome, the film makers can't help themselves from including it, in case our attention spans are so-o short we'd lose interest after a minute. Sigh. 🤦♀️
Imagine being born without the knowledge that you *are* one of these giants surrounding you.
Dumb comment. EVERY organism is born being unaware they're a small version of its grown-ups at first
No one ever born with any knowledge generally. Just saying
Unbearable beautiful, beautiful ❤️
They are beautiful
What beautiful creatures ♥️♥️
Never seen a Muskox before today!
Cute little baby born in the snow!! How Gangsta!!!
Beautiful animals they are.
This was a lovely clip of video. What a beautiful calf. These musk ox are magnificent creatures. I hope they will be left in peace to live their best lives.
Unfortunately in the name of rubbish trophy, ruthless hunters will not allow the species to live peacefully.
Brave newborn! 😊🦬
Браво малыш
Amazing. I never saw a musk ox before. Those huge powerful creatures, that cute little calf - beautiful!
What a day to be born. Neither lil calf or mom are complaining. Beautiful Sean God bless
What a good mama !
Hello how are you doing?
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Thank you for sharing this rare beauty.
I spent the summer prospecting in Canada’s Northwest Territories in 1974 in the Thelon Reserve. We ran across several herds of these beautiful animals, occasionally getting close enough to see them form their defensive ring around the calves, facing outwards to prepare to deal with the threat, the lead bull standing ready just outside the ring. Mother Nature in action, amazing to see.
So beautiful ❤
Gorgeous and adorable animals - baby AND fully grown
These are just beautiful animals, and I'm so happy to see them being reintroduced into their natural wild
Absolutely beautiful 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
So adorable.
The underwool of the musk ox is called qiviut (pronounced ke-vee-oot). It is warmer than wool by at least 8 times and is shed by the musk oxen in spring as the weather warms. For millenia it was gathered by indigenous people and it is still gathered today in the Arctic. It's spun into the warmest and most precious yarns and, thought rightly expensive, can be bought. It's incredibly soft and warm. Like other natural fibers, if cared for properly, an item made of qiviut will last a lifetime.
Wow, thanks for sharing that bit of knowledge. Never heard of it but just looked it up. You’re right it is expensive. They seem to go $1K and above. I’ve been moving towards natural fiber sweaters. May eventually get one but will be in several years time!
Kudos to the cameraman! Great video.😊
Какой славный малыш ! Только родился и куда - то на своих крепких ножках уже потопал, хорошо что мама рядом. Эти новорожденные овцебычки - такие милые, малюсенькие , трогательные. Дай Бог ему вырасти большим и сильным !
Не говори... вылез из ды и побежал по своим делам. Маленький весь пушистый...
Странно а как их мамы кормят, они такие волосатые .
What a miracle! How wonderful and amazing🥺💙🤍🖤🐃🐮
All babies, regardless of the species, are cute. Mothers are all the same, again regardless of species. Little calf got herself in trouble on her first day by walking (and slipping) on the ice. Good thing it was not thin ice, otherwise this could have ended very badly for the calf. Nice, relaxing video. Kudos to all moms everywhere!
С днём рождения малыш! 😘
THEY’RE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS 🤎
Beautiful nature with the birth of another life and the stunning scenery
Calf is soo 😍😍
She is adorable ❤❤❤❤ they must be protected!!!!
Fascinating to watch. I have never seen a video about these animals before really majestic.
Господи, какой же он крохотный! Зима,снег, а малыш родился!🥰🥰🥰🐃🐃🐂🐂🐂
Did you even watch the video? The narrator literally called the little muskox, “she”.
I like how Muskoxen are Bighorn Sheep, but on Juice! 💪😎
Keep these creatures on Earth. We need them.
😊
Elegant. Bravo! Thanks!
Elle est si mignonne 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

That is the CUTEST EVER baby floof with hooves❤❤
Muskox!?? What a dangerously cute name.😅😆 The scientist who named them first must've been puzzled " They look fluffy and huge which makes them cute and damgerous at the same time.." Muskox!
Such a beautiful wee film ☺️
Hi how are you. Greetings from California, Good video. Hope you’re safe from the covid. Have a good week and stay safe 😃😘 Scott
Amazing how these animals survive .
Beautyful calf.
Little chaos angel. Parenting is so hard. She probably aged 10 years in those few moments.
So adorable💖💖💖
Too cute 🥰😻😻😻
Protect.👍💙❤️👍👍👍💖
It’s hard not to tell her that it’s a big world outside the womb but she always needs to be on her toes and on alert. This world is full of adventure and danger
