Fishermen help rescue newborn foal from canal at Outer Banks

The Corolla Wild Horse Fund announced the birth of Beatrice.

Beatrice was born on Saturday. On Tuesday, she was struggling to get out of the water of a nearby canal. Several fishermen spotted her having trouble and helped Beatrice get out of the canal and on to land. Several local rescue organizations assisted as well.

"Thank goodness there were three fishermen right there who were able to get Beatrice out of the water," read a post on the Corolla Wild Horse Fund's Facebook page. "Owen, Jeff, and George - you saved this filly’s life."

The group says Beatrice was having trouble nursing and bonding with her mom initially. However, within a few hours, they were on the right track.
