When a group of sailors discovered a drowning squirrel stranded in a large lake, they sprung into action to save him. But the squirrel was too exhausted to grab onto a stick that the crew extended into the water in an attempt to help. At a lack for other options, one of the men jumped into the water and swam to the distressed critter, giving him a much-needed break from treading water.
The rescuer kept the cold, tired squirrel dry as he swam back to the boat, where the relieved animal was able to relax and dry off in the sun. When the boat came as close to land as it could get, the men helped the squirrel one last time by boosting him toward the shore. He was able to swim the remainder of the way, and finally reached safety.
Thank you, kind sailors, for giving this squirrel a second chance.
Thank you for saving him
What a beautiful, decent, understanding, considerate gesture — I love you, sweet, great men — we know the squirrel was suffering and you dived in & gave him some respite — until dry land — you are REAL HEROES !
What a great and compassionate rescue these fine guys did for that squirrel! The sailor did not hesitate to jump in and save a near drowning animal and he should be highly commended for his heroic effort. Thanks, sailors, you are awesome!!!!????????????????
Thank you guy Your the greatest
Thank you, thank you, thank you Gentlemen for being the kind souls that you are and the compassion you displayed! If only there were more people like you two in this world…………
Stewardship, in the Christian tradition, implies protection. [Hu]Man should exist in harmony with the Earth, not work against it as is noted in Colossians 1:16-17
Plans to protect air and water, wilderness and wildlife are in fact plans to protect man. – Stewart Udall
Good thing those guys saw it and saved it. Poor little thing so tired from swimming,,,love squirrels.
Such kind hearts! The rescuers are wonderful examples and inspirations for us all to look out for all creatures.
Nice to see kind human beings.
Has anyone even wondered how that squirrel got out there? They are not exactly known for casual swims and a squirrel would not last long treading water with the amount of large fish swimming below it. Some people will do strange things to create a video and look like heroes. Just saying! Hmm!
Maybe being unable to see the good in people says something about you, Brian. Just saying!
There should be more people out there like these men! Bravo!!! Nice to see such great videos these days when there are so many other disastrous evil things being done to animals!
Thank you to the kind souls who care enough to help such a small creature! Such a welcome
relief from the constant brutality
