Donkey thanked his rescuers with a grateful smile
Last Sunday, Suzanne Gibbson, who lives in the south of Ireland, noticed a donkey that was stuck in the middle of a flooded river as a result of the rains. The donkey was lucky, he was stranded, but the animal was unable to get out on its own. Literally, a step away from the shallows, depth and a strong current began. Suzanne turned to the Animal Rescue Society, on their social media page, asking for help. Mike Fleming, who is a member of the rowing club, immediately responded to her call. What happened next, the footage will tell.
