A visiting kayaker was enjoying a paddle down the Kootenay River when they spotted an interesting situation.
While generally at home on the range, one cow turned carp seemed to be out for a leisurely swim.
Understandably concerned about the possibly distressed cow on a river crawl, the kayaker contacted the police, who in turn contacted the Livestock Association, who in turn contacted a possible local rancher.
In a scene one assumes to be similar to Jersey Shore, minus Hasselhoff, added Hasslehoof, the rancher stepped in to rescue the bathing bovine while no lifeguard was on duty.
