Head over hooves

TRAMORE | 16 NOVEMBER
Volunteers from Tramore RNLI went to the rescue of a bull stranded on a rocky ledge after it fell from a clifftop into the sea. With the animal secured by rope, and a representative of Waterford Animal Welfare on scene, the crew of the inshore lifeboat used their oars to usher the bull gently off the ledge. The crew then guided the swimming bull into a nearby cove and the bull got out of the water safely, much to the waiting owner’s relief.
