    <p>The flood water from Hurricane Harvey was unbelievable.</p>
<p>Between Texas and Louisiana, there was an estimated <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2017/08/30/harvey-has-unloaded-24-5-trillion-gallons-of-water-on-texas-and-louisiana/?utm_term=.e8d8de074e69" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">24.5 trillion gallons</a> of water left behind. Because of this, evacuation and rescue missions became that much harder.</p>
<p>Complete strangers helped one another out, just like this <a href="https://www.littlethings.com/escaped-bull/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">cowboy</a> did.</p>
<p>However, instead of saving another human, he found a horse all alone in a flooded, metal paddock. He knew he had to jump into action with his dad following right behind him.</p>
<p>In the video below, posted on August 30, 2017, the cowboy approaches the <a href="https://www.littlethings.com/horse-trapped-river-rescued/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">trapped horse</a> as his father narrates the rescue from afar. The man sits on his own horse and begins yanking at the door of the paddock.</p>
<p>The horse in trouble watches patiently. Although he is alone, he realizes he can trust the cowboy to bring him to a much safer place.</p>
<p>The cowboy eventually breaks the scared horse out of the paddock and guides him closer. Then, he guides the rescued animal through the flood water toward safety.</p>
<p>Check out this incredible rescue in the video below, and please <strong>SHARE</strong> if you&#8217;re thankful for this heroic cowboy and his dedication to saving this horse!</p>
<p>The high waters weren&#8217;t going to stifle this beautiful horse&#8217;s freedom any longer, all thanks to his cowboy hero.</p>
