BRAVE 60-YEAR-OLD WOMAN STOPS MAN FROM THROWING BAG OF BABY BUNNIES INTO RIVER!

If you found yourself in the right place at the right time, would you have the courage to stop a crime?

Well one brave 60-year-old Englishwoman named Elle risked her own safety recently to save nine frightened baby bunnies who had been stuffed into a bag and were seconds away from being hurled into the river.

When Elle (last name withheld to protect her personal safety) came around the river bend with her dog, she saw a man there acting strangely. He was grasping a bag in one hand and looking nervously over one shoulder as he approached the riverbank. Elle�s intuition stirred and she felt a sense of danger wash over her. She could see the shapes of the rabbits tiny bodies rounding out the bottom of the bag. There was a great risk that any man capable of drowning baby animals wouldn�t hesitate to harm her too, but Elle�s conscience made the split-second choice to race forward and protect the animals with her own life and her trusty walking stick.

With her dog by her side, Elle charged the man and grabbed the bag. He was enraged and swore in her face, but did not raise a hand to Elle. Perhaps it was the presence of the dog that made him think twice or perhaps he only acts with violence against small animals, but for whatever reason, this unidentified man left the scene without further incident.

Shaken but unharmed, Elle and the bunnies made a beeline for The Rabbit Residence Rescue to see Caroline Collings who has been saving bunnies for 20 years. All the bunnies had parasites and signs of neglect but are recovering at the The Rabbit Residence Rescue https://www.facebook.com/rabbitresidence?ref=br_tf

And as for Elle, well today’s hero gives all new meaning to the famous phrase, “Walk softly, but carry a big stick”.

Animal Rescue Chase

The Great Animal Rescue Chase celebrates the art of animal rescue with a worldwide race to rescue one million. It’s a free event, open to all, and is perhaps the only global animal rescue event aimed at helping any animal in distress, anywhere in the world. Our ambition is to create a culture of enthusiasm and pride in animal activism. We believe in teaching, by example, that there is a hero in each of us just waiting to be unleashed. Empowered animal lovers can not only save lives, but build the momentum for powerful animal welfare reform.
