Heroic rescue! Animal lovers leap into raging stream to save cow, watch

Some people see animals as just part of the world around us, but there are others who treat them as family. For true animal lovers, compassion knows no limits; they can go to any extent, even risking their own lives, to save the voiceless. Acts of courage like these not only restore faith in humanity but also remind us of the deep bond humans share with animals. Recently, one such heartwarming and heroic incident surfaced online, where a group of men jumped into a flooded stream to save a helpless cow that was being swept away by strong currents.

Animal Lovers Risk Their Lives to Save Cow

In the viral video, a group of people sprint alongside the canal, while others frantically toss ropes into the swirling waters. Meanwhile, several individuals plunge in, one by one, into the surging tide. Surprisingly, a cow is seen struggling desperately in the gushing waters, moments away from drowning. 

Without a second thought, the locals rushed in, fighting against the force of the stream to reach the animal. The men formed a chain, carefully maneuvering through the dangerous waters, and managed to grab hold of the cow. After a tense struggle, they successfully pulled the animal to safety, leaving onlookers both stunned and relieved.

While the origin of the video couldn't be verified, it is shared on X by PN Rai. As claimed, the incident is from Punjab. 

पानी की तेज बहाव में फिसल जाने वाली गाय को गो रक्षक नौजवानों ने अपनी जान जोखिम में डाल कर न बचाया होता तो 2 किलोमीटर दूर पंजाब के कोटला हाइड्रोपावर हाउस के टरबाइन में गिर कर उसकी दर्दनाक मौत हो जाती।
