SILVER LAKE, MINN (KDLM) - A Minnesota man is claiming he found a fox and coyote frozen solid on a Minnesota lake in the heat of battle.

The video posted on Facebook by Michael Rasmussen has been viewed and shared more thank 25,000 times.

Rasmussen claims he didn't set the animals up nor were they stuffed and that the day before the video was taken the temperatures were -33°f (-65°f with windchill).



If true, it wouldn't be the first time animals were found frozen solid in mid fight. In 2016 two moose were discovered frozen in battle and encased in ice near a remote village on Alaska's unforgiving western coast.
