Farmer finds newborn calf freezing in the snow — and saves his life with a hot tub

Like us, a lot of animals are susceptible to the dangers of cold weather. People going above and above to keep them warm is always heartening, as they are vulnerable to conditions like hypothermia and frostbite.

Similar to the farmer who improvised and saved the life of a freezing young cow by using an incredibly inventive and unexpected approach.

Dean Gangwer raises cattle on his property in Rossville, Indiana. On a frigid morning in 2015, Dean discovered a startling new addition to his property.

That one of his cows had given birth in the middle of the night was unknown to him. Unfortunately, she gave birth to her calf on top of a snowdrift, and now it was freezing.

The calf was breathing furiously, and Dean was fighting to keep his eyes open. He raced the cow to his house in an attempt to save it.

He knew enough about cattle to figure out that the calf needed a hot bath. And Dean happened to have his perfect cow-sized bath, a hot tub, ready to go!

Strange as it may sound, the tactic worked quite well.

I got in fully clothed, held Leroy up to keep him from drowning, and we had a great hour-long bath, Dean stated WRTV. “I think the ending is going to be fantastic for him, and we both came out warm.”

After that soothing jacuzzi session, the farmer wrapped his calf in warm, cozy blankets.

Leroy is the name of the calf. The cow’s body temperature eventually regulated, and he was ready to return to the herd.

The farmer adds that although sharing his hot tub with the cows was a quick and considerate decision that helped save the little cow, it won’t happen frequently.

“Leroy’s hot-tubbing is over,” he announced. “It’s clear that his days in the hot tub are over, but he might still occasionally sunbathe in the grass going forward.”

He Recently Spent $6.5k On A Young Registered Black Angus Bull

Among many other benefits, laughing lowers stress, improves mood, boosts immunity, and even increases pain tolerance.

Regretfully, when life’s challenges and obligations increase, it becomes harder to find reasons to laugh.

Here’s a joke that will make you laugh till your stomach hurts, just for the purpose of a good daily laugh!

So let’s get started:

I recently bought a juvenile Black Angus bull that is registered for $6,500.

When I let him out with the herd, he would just eat grass and not even glance at a cow. That bull was beginning to appear like it cost me more than I had.

Anyway, I requested that the veterinarian examine him. The bull may be a little young, but he was in fantastic health, he said, and he gave me some medications to give him once a day.

The bull started looking after all of my cows in two days! He even succeeded in climbing over the fence to mate with all of my neighbor’s cows! He resembles a machine!

The tablets the veterinarian gave him tasted somewhat like peppermint, though I’m not sure what was in them!
