Australian rescuers remove cow stuck in backyard pool By (0) April 6 (UPI) -- Emergency responders in Australia were called to a rural home where a cow had fallen into a backyard pool and appeared unable to climb back out. The New South Wales State Emergency Service said responders were summoned to Gilgandra, in the Orana region, on Saturday evening to rescue a 660-pound cow stuck in the pool.

"When we arrived the cow was quite happy and very content in the pool and she was just in the shallow end of the pool."
