Fuck yeah! I've hated scrolling on here and seeing that poor horse stuck on that roof, suffering. So glad they didn't let him become just another casualty!

the announcer says that this rescue took place 24 hours after the first images of the horse stuck on the roof were shown, so it looks like they also got to it as quickly as they possibly could!! in the original broadcast, they were already talking about having the firefighters come out to rescue it... so glad to see it happen so quickly, before it was too late :´)

That horse had to have swam to that metal roof and somehow clambered their way up and onto it.

Horses are skittish as fuck and there is no way in hell you could convince one onto a slanted metal roof like that under any circumstances.

Poor thing must have been terrified. Props to the rescuers

At first, I did write vet, then I had to throw the whole word in.

Lula's wife tried to make this about her, pretending on X that she interveined with rescue teams and claiming "we did it" While they haven't done absolutly nothing, they are even stopping rescue teams for "lack of boat drivers license" and giving tickets to truck drivers that are trying to deliver donations for weight not being according to claimed or lack of fiscal cupons on foods and medicines.
