Dramatic Vole Escape Caught on Camera
Clip: Season 41 Episode 2 | 2m 56sVideo has Closed Captions
This vole is not safe from weasels or great owls -- even deep under the snow.
The red-backed vole lives beneath the surface of the snow. But there’s one creature that can hear its every move: the great grey owl. And if the owl were not enough of a threat, another predator lurks within the vole's tunnels.
