Heroes! All the heroes aren’t those who wear a uniform or special clothes. We are sure you have seen many heroes roaming around and saving many lives. We bet you didn’t realize how many different kinds of heroes there are. They are a part of our daily life and oftentimes they are not even a human. Yes – you, read that right. Pets and animals can serve as heroes in a wide variety of ways.
When you hear the word “HERO” you immediately picture a superhero like Spiderman, Batman, or Iron Man swooping in to save the day. Likewise, there are many four-legged heroes who save many lives of other animals and humans as well. You must have heard of a dog saving a child from danger, a cat chasing down a poisonous snake in your bedroom, a cat defending her human from an ambling dog that had been after the child, and many more. These are just a few of the inspiring tales of big-hearted heroes who risked their own safety to save the lives of others, and each of them is deserving of a GOLD MEDAL. Because why not?
Don’t believe us, then c’mon, let us show you some incredible photos and stories of animals who risked their own lives to save and rescue those in need.
