A video has emerged from the UK of a man rescuing a sheep from a river in South Wales.

The footage, captured on May 10, shows the man using all his might to push the animal onto the bank.

''My husband and I were walking back from the beach in our local village Llangennith, Swansea, when we came across the sheep and her lambs,'' the filmer later wrote online.

''We couldn't just walk past and leave it to die, we didn't know which farmer it belonged to at the time, so my husband Jon decided to try and help.''

''Once the sheep was safe on dry land we managed to track the farmer down.''

''He came very quickly to pick her up in his tractor, took her back to his barn, put her under lamps ( she was so very cold and shivering very badly) for the night and the next day she had completely recovered and was reunited with her two lambs,'' she added.
