A crew of firefighters had to be called in to rescue a cow that got her hoof stuck in grating at approximately 8:00am yesterday morning (Monday, October 13) on an English farm.

The incident occurred at a farm in Siddington, in the English county of Cheshire.

According to Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service, firefighters were called to a farm in Blackden Lane, Siddington, following reports of a cow’s hoof being stuck in a cattle grid.

Taking to social media after getting the animal free, the service said:

“This cow had a lucky escape after getting her hoof stuck in grating.

“She was rescued by firefighters from Macclesfield Fire Station and Lymm Fire Station and fortunately only suffered a couple of cuts,” the fire service’s post said.

A similar incident occurred back in July in Hampshire, England, when numerous teams of firefighters were mobilised to rescue a 12-month-old bullock which became trapped in a water trough.
