Woman Battles for 3 HOURS to Save Horse Trapped in Mud and Rising Tide

Nicole Graham story can be told as a story of courage love and community support during a time of disaster. Once going on a horse ride near the shore of a city in Australia, namely Geelong, Nicole and her daughter were nearly struck by a terrible disaster – the ground caved in. Notice that their horses started walking on the soft sand and they are stuck in a very deep pit, Astro, the 18 year old horse belonging to Nicole was stuck up to his neck.

These events were actually crucial when Astro could hardly breathe, and only Nicole’s thinking and determination mattered at that point. Although the struggle was a daunting task, she did not give up and spent as much as three hours calming down her horse all along a firming the heart that any panic would make the situation worse. The sea level also rose in this case to increase the pressure and make what was already a critical situtation become a time-sensitive one.

However, Nicole’s daughter was lucky to flee and to call for assistance; the situation worsened as a result. After they came a rescue team, and a veterinarian who put Astro to sleep to calm him down a bit. However the tough conditions and the ever shrinking ground as the tide rose, the slippery quagmire like mud in which they were stuck ADD the psychological pressure increased the readiness of everyone involved.

Suddenly when things seemed to be diminishing the key to the rescue came in handy in this case it was a farmer with a tractor. This they achieve by pulling a rope attached on Astro and through the might of the tractor, they set free Astro from the mud. Only Nicole’s constant work, the support of her friends, and the medical staff helped the girl to have a happy ending.

Apart from its portrayal of the strength in unity of a community in adverse situation, this case emphasizes the regard of the forces of nature. All in all, not only do we get a suspense filled, traumatic, yet thankfully, end in relief and gratitude story of Nicole and Astro’s fate, but it also becomes a memorable part of her life – for her and all those who risked their lives to save him.
