Billy the bull rescued by firefighters after getting head stuck in tree

A bull with its head stuck in a tree prompted a call to firefighters to rescue it.



The bull, named Billy, was freed within 90 minutes from the tree in a field in Rugby, Warwickshire.





Two fire engines and the Large Animal Rescue Unit from Rugby were deployed after being alerted at about 10:55am on Tuesday.



The animal "seems none the worse for wear for the ordeal," the fire service said. It said "a winch, strop and riot shield" were used to remove the bull.
