A wild rescue story with a mystery comes from Stoke-on-Trent, where a pony was found entirely trapped inside a tractor tire.
Neither residents nor rescuers had any clue or idea as to what had gone on which saw the pony jailed by the derelict tire, but no one waited around to find out.
Residents immediately called the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals after finding the animal trapped in a field.
Rescue officer Nicola Riley described the event to the BBC as a “delicate operation” of an “understandably very scared and uncomfortable animal.”
Opting not to use a cutting tool, the RSCPA rescuers eased the pony’s head and shoulders out of the tire, allowing it to stand up and wobblily return to its comrades in the field.
“Thankfully, everyone worked really well together and we managed to get him out without causing any injury,” Riley said, who monitored the pony for the next hour to ensure he wasn’t suffering any lasting trauma.
The pony began feeding not long after his release. His fur was matted and very dirty, suggesting a long period stuck in the tire.
The officer said that it could have ended very differently if the residents hadn’t called, and encouraged anyone in a similar situation to do the same thing.
