First Responders Called to Rescue Cow Stuck in Family Pool On 4/12/21 at 11:58 AM EDT First responders in rural Gilgandra, Australia received a strange request on the evening of April 3: rescue a cow that had become trapped in a belowground pool. Despite her circumstances, the 660-pound bovine took the arrival of the New South Wales State Emergency Service (SES) in stride, Geoff Kiehne, the commander of the agency's Gilgandra unit, told 9 News, describing her as "quite happy and very content." "It was a very unusual event," he said. "I've never had a cow in a pool before." In a pair of photos posted to the SES's Facebook page, the cow, a "healthy" brown female, can be seen standing neck-deep in the shallow end. Commenters seized the opportunity to make dairy puns.
