(Aurora, Ind.) - Aurora firefighters had to make an un-cow-ventional rescue Tuesday.

A young bull had somehow gotten its head stuck in a disc plow at a farm on Lower Dillsboro Road, the Aurora Fire Department posted on Facebook.

Firefighters had to disassemble the plow in order to free the bull, which appeared to be in a very uncomfortable position.

The fire department believes the animal will survive.

"They say there is a first time for everything. Well today it was true," the fire department posted.
