GOLDIE RESCUED FROM BOTTOM OF SEASIDE CLIFF

GOLDIE RESCUED FROM BOTTOM OF SEASIDE CLIFF

A pony named Goldie tumbled down a 65 foot sea cliff and became trapped in an isolated cove.

It took 16 rescuers and a three-day operation to bring Goldie to safety.The RSPCA team first aimed to rescue her by helicopter and use a winch to lift her, but were unable to secure the equipment on time. They also considered a boat rescue but wind and waves were simply too strong. So they lowered water and hay down to Goldie while they cooked up another plan.

On day three, Goldie was sedated and lifted back up the face of the cliff by firemen. Quite possibly one of the most unique rescue operations of their careers.Thankfully Goldie has been returned to his family and is �recovering at a local riding center.

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.
