The dozer weighs about 130 tons.The dragline that is lifting it weighs quite a bit more.

Actually somewhat less than half that. About 55 tons. But your point stands.

There is a picture of a decent sized dozer that got scooped up in a bucket wheel excavator somewhere, i'd guess it took some extracting

Bucket wheel excavators are quite impressive.
