It took five hours, nearly 50 people and a makeshift bridge of ropes and logs, but a complex rescue effort in Connecticut this weekend successfully freed two horses, Damascus and Beau, after they became stuck in a swampy mess.
“Horses are known for getting themselves into trouble, they are curious by nature,” Ms. Prink said.
Both horses had found safe haven at the farm in Lebanon, Conn., after being rescued from difficult situations.
Ms. Prink said that Beau and Damascus went missing on Saturday, and farm workers spent a couple of hours looking for them before finding the horses stuck in the mud.
After a spending a couple more hours trying to get the horses out, the workers ultimately had to call for outside help.
