ETTRICK, Wis. — Maybe she just wanted a break from the summer heat?
According to WKBT, firefighters in Ettrick, Wisconsin, came to the rescue Tuesday when a cow unexpectedly took a dip in a swimming pool off Whalen Road.
In a Facebook post, the news station shared a photo of the black-and-white cow standing in the water as firefighters look on.
"A 'Mool'? No, that's udderly ridiculous, it's a pool with a cow in it!" WKBT captioned the photo, which has been shared more than 1,800 times.
The station didn't offer further details about how rescuers were able to moo-ve the bovine, which "was safely returned home," the post said.
The Ettrick Fire Department seemed to take it all in stride.
"Well, we made the news I guess, lol," the department responded in its own post, adding, "At least we got her out safe."
