Firefighters were called out by a worried farmer after one of their cows got into the river.

But they hadn’t figured on the resourcefulness of this particular bovine, which rescued itself.

Fire crews were called out to reports of a cow stuck in the river at Kirkham, Malton at 9.06pm last night.

A North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service spokesperson said: “After a thorough search and confirmation from the cattle owner that all cows were present, it is believed to have self extricated itself from the river prior to our arrival.”
