Rescuers in Louisiana faced a challenging task: getting a cow out of a tree following Hurricane Ida.
The St Bernard Parish shared a video of Road Yard Chief of Operations Louis Pomes and parish government employees Tyler Acosta, David Palmer, and Roy Ragan Sr helping the cow stuck in a tree in Florissant, Louisiana.
The clip quickly went viral after social media users responded to the bizarre situation.
Hurricane Ida tore through Louisiana on August 29, 2021. It landed with winds of up to 150mph, making it the fifth strongest hurricane to hit the US. Its fierce winds and torrential rain left around a million people without power.
Entergy, a deep south energy company, warned it would take weeks to restore power to homes and businesses.
Deanna Rodriguez, Entergy New Orleans president and CEO told CNN:
“This will be a marathon, not a sprint.
We’re working as safely and quickly as we can, but recovery will vary depending on the damage incurred and its location. We must all be prepared for the recovery to take some time.”
