Heifer up to her neck in bull
A young cow had a lucky escape earlier after becoming trapped in a slurry pit.
The heifer fell into the muck on a farm near Mount Rule this morning.
Fire crews from Douglas attended, and pulled the stricken animal out using a length of rope, with help from the farmer's tractor.
The rescue mission took around an hour.
It's understood the heifer is safe and well - if smelling a little worse than before.
