Firefighters in England came to the rescue of five sheep that ended up stranded on a rooftop after jumping across a gap from a neighboring field.
The West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said in a Twitter post that its technical rescue officer responded to a property where five sheep had jumped across a gap from a field and ended up stranded on the roof of a building.
Ph-ewe – this was a close shave! 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
Our Tech Rescue Officer's specialist animal husbandry training came in handy when he rescued these sheep from a roof after they'd leapt onto it from a neighbouring field.🚒
