A horse has been rescued after it wandered into an abandoned grain silo and fell through a narrow opening in the basement.
El Dorado Search and Rescue team said on their Facebook account that the team was called to the scene by the Yolo County Animal Services after the horse was found to have fallen through a 22-inch opening into the basement of the grand silo, according to UPI.
Personnel from the UC Davis Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital’s Large Animal Clinic, the North Valley Animal Disaster Group, the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office, and Yolo Fire assisted the Californian search and rescue team.
The mare, named Matsie, was pulled out of the basement through a pulley system erected by the rescuers who later said that the wanderer had been reunited with her family and friends.
"The team collaboration between the response groups that frequently train together to perform a difficult rescue showed that their dedication and training pays off," the post from the Californian rescuers said.
"Technical equipment that was critically needed on this rescue was donated by Halter Project,” it added.
