Panaji: In an interesting rescue conducted on Monday at Patnem beach in South Goa, Drishti Marine lifesavers rescued a calf from drowning, after the young animal got caught in a rip current.
The incident occurred at Patnem Beach around 1 pm on 17 June (Monday), when a calf that was being chased by a stray dog ventured into the water in panic, before being caught in a rip current.
Spotting the calf struggling, lifesavers Manoj Bhat and Kushant Naik swiftly intervened and brought the calf to shore and safely relocated it 500 metres away from the waterline. The prompt action by the lifesavers showcases the dedication of the lifesavers to keep Goa’s beaches safe for every form of life, calves included.
