A heartwarming video has emerged from the UK of a sheep drowning in the River Thames being rescued by kayakers. <br /><br />The footage, shot on Sunday, shows the two good samaritans encountering the sheep stuck in the muddy water and deciding to help the animal out. <br /><br />''We were paddling the River Thames near Oxford and came across a drowning sheep. It was struggling to keep its head above water and was clearly exhausted,'' one of the kayakers wrote later online.<br /><br />''We dragged it onto the bank but it was unable to stand up. The water was cold and the sheep was suffering from hypothermia after being in the river for hours.''<br /><br />''There was no farmer or farmhouse in sight and nothing else we could do other than leave it in the sun to dry out and hopefully recover,'' he continued.
