These Two Men Risked Their Lives To Rescue Stranded Foxes From Flood Waters
Two Canadian men are being called heroes after they waded into floodwaters to rescue foxes stranded on a rock pile near their home. Colin Graham and Jordan Olson spotted the animals trapped by rising water and decided they could not just leave them there.
The rescue happened near Welwyn, a village about 250 kilometers east of Regina, after heavy rain left the area flooded. Colin had already been watching the foxes around his property for months, so seeing one of them stuck in the water made the situation feel even more urgent.
What started as a quick look turned into a dangerous swim, and the story only got better from there.
Colin Graham and Jordan Olson risked their lives to rescue stranded foxes from floodwaters in Canada.
The first young fox they pulled out was no bigger than a tiny kitten. He was frightened of the men at first and tried to swim away.
There had been 8 inches of rain near Welwyn, east of Regina, Canada, when the foxes became stranded on some rocks.
Faith in humanity restored!
Kind of like Craig, who rescued stray “puppies” before discovering the surprising truth: Craig’s cardboard-box moment.

Later that day, the men spotted the mother fox and were able to reunite her with her baby. "Then we were driving later, and we saw the mother out there, so we took him back," Colin said.
"They're reunited," Colin chuckled. "I saw them running around the other day."
How special it is that Colin and Jordan were able to save the lives of the stranded foxes and reunite a mother with her baby! At the very least, the two men certainly have a good story to tell their friends!
I don't know about you, but my faith in humanity is officially restored. How wonderful it is to know there are people out there who care so much for animals!
