Medway firefighters rescue a calf in a well on Oct. 16, 2021.

There is no such thing as a typical day for firefighters, something illustrated by a call that fire crews received this weekend in Medway, Massachusetts.

The Medway Fire Department responded to a local farm Saturday where a calf had fallen into a 20-foot deep well and was in serious danger of drowning.

Fire crews executed a technical animal rescue and successfully removed the calf from the well. The fire department happily shared that the animal then rejoined the waiting herd.

Medway firefighters were assisted by Medway police officers.
