Missing Horse Found and Rescued From Deep Ditch
- 4 years ago
Occurred on May 28, 2020 / Labertouche, Victoria, Australia
Info from Licensor: "On May 26th 2020 I couldn't find Toby, it's not uncommon for the horses to get out of the property or be hiding behind a hill. The next day still no sight, at 1:30 pm we found him in a very deep ditch, shaking, cold and excited to see us, we had walked past him the first day. We fed him while we waited for a dairy farmer to bring his tractor, Toby is very quiet so we easily put the straps on and the farmer hoisted him out. We did not expect Toby to be able to walk for at least an hour, but as soon as his feet hit the ground he tried to run but was very wobbly. We fed and rugged him and have kept a close eye on him since. He is completely fine, apart from one sore back leg we think he was sitting on."
