A CALF had to be rescued after it got stuck along a stretch of the River Thames in Henley.
The young cow was trapped in the water near Temple Island on Monday and firefighters from Henley and several crews from Berkshire were called to the scene. Despite treacherous conditions, they rescued the animal using expert techniques and knowledge from local farmers.
A statement on Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service’s Facebook page said: "We wish to thank the members of the public for calling this in and waiting with the animal until we arrived.
