You may have seen dogs, dolphins or fish on a beach, but other animals do not tend to be common near the seashore. That's why the scene that took place this week at Cremorne Beach in Tasmania was quite unusual. A sheep had been trapped in the surf and could not get close to the shore, until a man jumped into the sea, tied it to a rope and managed to save its life. The animal would have died of exhaustion a few minutes later if it had not been removed.
