Firefighters Rescue Goat Trapped Between Boulders in San Diego
Firefighters in San Diego, California, performed an unusual rescue on Friday evening. They saved a goat trapped between boulders in an agricultural area in Descanso, using specialized techniques and equipment.
The goat had fallen from a rock, finding itself tightly pinned between two large boulders. Simple coaxing couldn't free the animal. Firefighters from the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department stepped in, employing pressurized air bags to create space around the goat. This allowed it to wiggle free.
The rescue team then used a leash and a stick to carefully pull the goat out. Despite the ordeal, the goat only sustained a minor elbow injury. The children on the farm, who had been eagerly watching, greeted their furry friend with hugs and joyous celebrations.
This unusual rescue highlights the versatility of firefighters, who are trained to handle a wide range of situations. The goat, now safe, can continue its important role in eco-friendly wildfire management strategies, helping to remove flammable weeds from steep hillsides.
