Chance (muskox)

Chance is a muskox that was found abandoned in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. He was only two weeks old when he was found in 2005 and brought to the Yukon Wildlife Preserve. While there, Chance befriended Boo, a baby caribou, and became a main attraction of the wildlife preserve. Chance died of liver problems in 2006.
