Watch: Mike the donkey, happy to be rescued from floods in Ireland

A drowning donkey felt so relieved that after all the struggle he has been through during the floods, he was finally rescued and reached the dry land. His happiness was evident when he gave a wide grin to the rescue worker.

Animal Heaven Animal Rescue in Kerry, Ireland saved him after they received a call from the owner worried about his donkey stuck in floodwater due to bad weather conditions on Monday.

The donkey was then named as Mike and is currently recovering in a warm stable.
