Many people who live in the city take off for the country whenever they have the opportunity to do so. It is nice to get away from it all and enjoy some of the things that nature has to offer. For many, it gives them the chance to recharge their batteries and to enjoy a peace of the world that may otherwise be somewhat out of their reach. Nature provides that benefit for us, but to an animal, it can be a life or death situation.
When a man was enjoying the river with his little paddleboard, he came across a rather unusual sight. There was a squirrel in the middle of the river, trapped on a rock and looking as if he was never going to see the other side. Although a squirrel is certainly capable of swimming, for some reason or another, this little fella seemed to be trapped and unable to move.
Fortunately, the man had the opportunity to help him and he did so by allowing him the hop a ride on his board. In fact, it didn’t take much coaxing for the squirrel to find his way on board and from that point, it was just a matter of time until he was safe again.
