Firefighters from Huntingdon and two crews and the rescue vehicle from Cambridge were called out on Tuesday at 12.07pm,

They arrived to find a cow submerged up to its neck in mud and brambles.

Water crews helped free the cow with the help of farm machinery before leaving it with the farmer.

And instead of milking the situation they soon headed back to the stations, returning by 4.30pm.
