In today’s article, we’ll be taking a look at ten animals that saved people’s lives. We have gathered up all sorts of stunning stories and amazing facts about our animal friends. All right, so let’s get onto the first one.
Lions, the uniquely social King of the jungle
If we say the word lion, the first thing that comes to our mind would be that lion chasing antelope for its dinner. Right? Be ready to change that view. A twelve year old Kenyan girl was kidnapped by four men in 2005 while walking home from school.
It’s a far common story which would have ended in a sad climax if the King of beasts wouldn’t have stepped in. She was held captive for a week by four men who beat her and tried to force a child to marry. The abusers had to run away with their hostage. When the police managed to track the whereabouts to the luck of the little girl, the three of them were stopped and chased by three Lions who saved her and guarded her till the police arrived at the spot. The girl was shocked and terrified.
With Lions surrounding her. Police claim that the snatchers bruised her, but the Lions didn’t lay a paw on her. Brilliant work warrior.
Gorillas, Maternal instinct
Studies claim that about 1000 mountain gorillas are remaining on Earth. Gorillas are extremely territorial animals. The story just proves the gorillas love for children. A three year old boy accidentally fell into the gorilla enclosure at Brookfield Zoo in Illinois. Everyone looking at that expected the worst to happen.
Gorilla is known to hurt even largesized men. So imagine what can happen. But that day, for the good destiny, things were different. Benti Jua, seven years old, gently carried the child to a safe place to protect him from the other gorillas. Jambo even led his other gorillas to allow the rescuers to intervene at Tap to Jambo, you have just taken a place on our list.
Lulu the rescue Vietnamese pig
You may not be surprised to hear that a dog saved someone’s life in case of a medical emergency. But what about pigs? Yes, you heard it right. Okay, we are talking about Lulu, the faithful companion of Joanne Altman.
Once she suffered a heart attack in her home, Lulu suddenly knew something was wrong. Lulu ran to find help, even though she had never been outside the fenced yard before. After trying to help Joanne failed. She sprinted up to traffic and stood so distressed to alert someone. Lulu led a man to Joanne and thankfully, an ambulance can be called up before it was too late.
Joanne was lucky to get Lulu because without her, since if just 15 minutes passed away, Joanne would probably not be alive to tell the tale. Yeah, Lulu deserves a place on our list.
Number Seven a whale saved a marine biologist at the 7th spot,
we found a whale saving a woman. Nan Hauser is a marine biologist. Once, when NAN was diving, she felt something about 50 £0 nudging over her.
She had over 28 years of experience with Dolphins, so she was sure to be tactile and so insistent on putting on his head or belly or back. When she noticed she could find a 15 foot Tiger shark lurking in the distance, the whale was actually trying to defend her from the shark by bravely tucking her underneath his fin. Scientists comment in this incident that this instinct comes from the whale’s urge to defend its calves from predators.
Tsunami Elephant
Who could forget one of the worst world disasters of 2004, the tsunami in Thailand? Amber Owen was there on vacation once when she was riding Ng Ng the elephants in Thailand.
Everything was fine at the beginning, before the elephant started moving back from the sea, the girl noticed a huge wave approaching. When she was enjoying after taking a long wait for Boxing Day adventure, she was shocked and terrified. But Ngnon was brave and could run as far away as possible from the deadly sea. He safely took her to a long, safe place to climb down and reunite with her family. The elephant’s bravery was so outstanding that it inspired Michael Morpugo, a famous British writer, to write a play about what happened.
Rabbit Saves Man if you have heard it right
then you are probably thinking we are saying something maniac. No, rabbits are not known for being the smartest creatures. Simon Stagel, a UK resident, once went into a diabetic coma when he was watching TV with his beloved. Well, that could put a curtain and put an end to him. If his pet rabbit wasn’t there, the animal found out it was seriously wrong and jumped onto her owner’s chest.
She began thumbing fiercely and licking his face. The odd behavior caught the notice of his wife. She thought that he had fallen asleep while watching TV. Thanks to the rabbit’s level of thinking, his wife could call up the emergency paramedics and the man’s life could be saved.
Pearly the parrot
Everyone would be at Sound sleeping at 04:00 in the morning. But what happens if something worse happens and you won’t be aware of it? But what happened in the house of Laura Jean Neeson and her fiance is shocking. Both of them awoke by hearing the sound of the parrot. The Pearly Pearly was actually trying to inform the family that something had happened in the laundry room and that a fire had engulfed their laundry room while a family was nearly saved from a big fire because the birds loud squawks.
They managed to get out safely and call up the fire Department to stop the fire from spreading.
Cat in the box
Well, you may wonder what it is. People do such shocking things, you can hardly call them humans. But this child’s story is true and you should believe this right now.
In Russia, once a newborn baby was left in a box in a cold stairwell. The child was met nearly with death. If a stray cat hadn’t come to the rescue, the neighbors heard the cat meowing as if it was calling for help. They were surprised and astonished at the sight of the poor baby and the cat’s fur. Russia is now a hero in the Russian city of Obninsk.
Thanks to Marcia for keeping the baby warm and cold conditions until the pet’s owner came across them both.
Dolphin shelter
Adam Walker is a British swimmer. He was in the midst of his eight hour marathon in the Pacific ocean. He got a sight of a huge white shark not far from it.
If a group of Dolphins was not there to shield Adam, It would be his last swim. All the credit goes to the Dolphins. Actually, Adam got lucky twice. He had a dream to swim with Dolphins, which was actually accomplished. And these kind creatures saved his life.
As we have already shown in another incident of a dolphin saving a woman. So it is Crystal clear that Dolphins are known to be lifesavers for rescuing drowning or unconscious people and pushing them towards the shore. They have the ability to feel danger. Their intuition is always brave enough to save a life.
Lefty the personal bodyguard
This is one of the most tragic ones we have ever said. Well, this surely holds the number one position on our list. Be ready to grab a towel to wipe your tears. Lefty the pit Bull interrupted four burglars who broke into a house. They were very determined and equipped with guns.
The incident took place in Oklahoma County, Virginia. The US family was sleeping. The burglars did not even hesitate to shoot the owner. But the beloved dog launched herself at a gun that was pointed at her owner. The owner would serve only be killed if the shadow hero didn’t throw itself in.
The shot shattered the poor dog’s shoulder and almost completely ripped the flesh from her leg. Even though surgeons tried to protect the leg in the end, they had to amputate.
