Horse and foal rescued after getting stuck in deep mud hole in Arizona

A group of animal "lovers" gathered in Arizona to rescue a horse and foal stuck in a deep mud hole.

Betty Nixon said she was alerted Saturday morning to the plight of the mare and foal stuck in a ditch near Heber-Overgaard, the Telegraph reports.

Nixon responded with a neighbor and discovered five people already working to rescue the horses.


"When I got there, they had already pulled the foal out of the mud," Nixon said.

She said it took more than an hour to get the mare out of the mud. /Telegraph/
