Western Canada is currently threatened by severe flooding and landslides. Many farms around the town of Abbotsford were badly affected.

However, the farmers managed to save several animals from the flood at once. They used jet skis and motor boats to bring cows and calves to higher ground.

They ignored requests for evacuation and risked their lives for their animals. Journalist Jesse Winter shared on Twitter the impressive video he made for the Reuters news agency.
