A group of brave mountain rescuers came to the aid of a stranded sheep in the picturesque Peak District. The poor ewe had found herself stuck on a cliff edge, unable to make her way back to safety. Thankfully, the skilled rescuers were able to carefully lower her to the ground using a special sheep rescue sack.
The incident took place at Stanage Plantation, a popular spot in Derbyshire known for its stunning beauty. The Edale Mountain Rescue team was quickly called to the scene to retrieve the stranded animal. Upon arrival, the team attempted to lasso the creature, but unfortunately, this method proved unsuccessful.
Undeterred, the team came up with another plan. They expertly lowered themselves down the steep rockface using ropes, all while ensuring the safety of the sheep. Once they reached the ledge where the ewe was stuck, they gently placed her in the rescue sack. With the sheep safely secured, the team carefully lowered her to the ground below.
Waiting at the bottom was the sheep's relieved farmer, who had been anxiously waiting for news of his beloved animal. He quickly checked to make sure she was unharmed before releasing her back into her field to graze.
The entire rescue operation took place around 4:21pm on a Thursday. The Edale Mountain Rescue team later took to social media to share the details of their heroic efforts. They wrote, "We were called to assist a cragfast ewe on a ledge above Stanage Plantation. Our team members worked together to set up a rope system that allowed us to safely access the ledge where the sheep was stuck."
Thanks to the quick thinking and bravery of the mountain rescuers, this stranded sheep was able to make it back to safety. The team's dedication to helping all creatures, big and small, is truly admirable.
