An excavator operator saved a calf who fell into a flooded water canal in Turkey.

Two cows passing by the irrigation canal in Çalpala village fell into the flooded waters. One was rescued by citizens with ropes, while this one was caught in the current and dragged for about 2 miles.

Word traveled fast and a nearby excavator operator lined up to the canal's edge and waited. He used impeccable timing and skill to catch the calf as it was moving quickly down the canal.
