A pig and dog were rescued from a 15-foot-deep ditch by a group from Animal Rahat. It took the team about an hour to use a net and lift each animal out of the hole. Without the help, the animals would have likely starved to death or drowned in the pit. Shivering and looking terrified, the pig and dog soon reached safety.
