Evidently in distress, firefighters were called to rescue a horse that fell down a well in Chile. The horse’s rider said the animal became frightened by a passing vehicle, jumped and fell into a well. Onlookers and the horse, despite being tranquilized were uneasy and nervous during the complicated rescue.
The horse is named Dreamer, perhaps an appropriate name for the rescue that followed. The great effort took an hour to bring the horse back to safety. Firefighter Rodrigo Gonzalez said they fashioned a sling to pull the horse a little further and then they were able to lift him with machinery.
The horse was lifted from the whole after being trapped for several hours and although he appeared to be well there were conflicting reports in local media regarding injuries. These firefighters should really be rewarded for their services as they are always there whenever we need them no matter the circumstances. Watch the video!
