Pregnant Cow Rescued from Rutland Pool

A pregnant cow's unexpected plunge into a swimming pool in Ketton, Rutland, led to a successful rescue on Monday.

Ian Blackburn was alerted to the peculiar scene by his neighbor, Andy the farmer, during a phone call.

Upon discovering the cow in his pool, Blackburn contacted Leicestershire Fire and Rescue for assistance.

Firefighters drained the pool and utilized a harness to safely lift the cow out.

The cow, along with her calf, was declared 'fit and well' by a veterinarian before being returned home.
