Shawn Tuffnell says he punched a moose multiple times, gripping its neck, before shooting it to death to save his 70-year-old mother.
The 37-year-old Saskatchewan man says his fight with the animal took place in late January after hearing his mother, Angie Tuffnell, cry for help on her acreage near Bienfait, 220 kilometres southeast of Regina.
