FORKLIFT TO THE RESCUE FOR STRANDED BOVINE

News Story

Firefighters have used a forklift to rescue a cow that got stuck on a factory roof.

The cow bolted from a field and got stuck on the roof of a furniture factory, which is built into a hillside, when its legs pierced the roof tiles.

News service Ananova said a forklift was driven up a ramp onto the roof, and hoses were slung around the cow to hoist it down. Ananova quoted a fireman as saying: "It was tough".

Words of support …

I know I can count on them. They give valuable suggestions on the campaign planning, and to publish content is as easy as abc, as they take care of the material layout and check links. This is a great support.
