| Horse Rescue |
|
Perhaps you heard about the herd of horses that were
trapped for 3 days on a tiny piece of land in the Netherlands. The small
piece of land was surrounded by water. Their natural instincts kept them
from swimming to solid land from their tiny perch. There were about 100
horses huddled together against the wind and water. The Nation was
mesmerized watching this drama as 18 of the horses perished, while
others were slowly weakening. First the fire department, then the Dutch
army, tried to rescue them. Both efforts were unsuccessful. Then, with a
break in the weather, the water level went down. Four women hatched a
plan to attempt a rescue by luring the horses into the water. |
