Holy cow! Sheriff's deputies and firefighters saved a struggling bull from drowning
in a pond east of Tampa, Fla.
The 20-year-old, half-ton bovine barely had its head above water when a man mowing grass spotted
the animal on Friday in Lithia, according to WTSP-TV.
Hillsborough County Sheriff's Department Deputy Christina Ammons hopped in
and helped keep the bull's head above the water for 45 minutes while another deputy
looked out for alligators, WUSF-TV reports.
A crew arrived with a winch to lift the bull onto dry land, the Naples Daily News reports.
Firefighters aided in the aquatic save.
Bull is 20 years old and never had a name until now, now his owner named him Lucky.
Long Live The Lucky! Long live everyone who made this happen!
