VIDEO: Coyote rescued from floating sheet of ice on Lake Michigan


A coyote which became trapped on a sheet of ice has been rescued by firemen in Chicago. The animal, which rescuers named Holly, spent over an hour floating on the lake in the United States.

Rescue workers were called at around 9.30am when passers by spotted the coyote on a block of ice.

Helicopter camera crews recorded the event. At one point, the coyote jumped off the ice and tried to swim to shore in the zero-degree celsius water.

The animal then climbed on a another ice floe, said Larry Langford, fire department spokesman, before being pulled to safety.
