When a horse got trapped in mud, it was a race against time to save its life before the seawater came in and drowned the poor animal.

But one woman never left the horse’s side, even when the situation seemed the most dire.
Nicole was Astro’s proud owner and loved her stallion more than anything else in the world, so she didn’t even consider going back to the safety of dry land when her best friend got stuck in the mud.

Would the horse be freed and survive? The answer was in the hands of his rescuers. Thankfully, at the very last moment one of them had an idea that could effectively save his life.
