[Music] top five animals that save people's lives a boy's best friend two-year-old Peyton Myrick was wandering around his grandparents farm but when his grandfather was distracted for a few minutes Peyton ran off into the sprawling woods surrounding the property the grandparents searched if Peyton was nowhere to be found luckily the boy was accompanied by the family's faithful dog a purebred Australian Shepherd named Asha poo police were called in and began an exhaustive search of the forest that stretched into the night little Peyton Myrick was nowhere to be found suddenly the search team came upon a
shippou bolted out of the woods and began barking at the search party a ship who led the search party back to a secluded barn in the woods where two-year-old Peyton Myrick lies sleeping on his jacket Asha Pugh had stayed with him the entire time and then alerted the search party when he heard them approaching I believe the doll was his guardian angel and fur was about the best way I think I could put it the gentle giant of course we all remembered the horrible story of Harambee but before that there were other occurrences of children
falling into gorilla cages that worked out very differently in a previous video I talked about the story of binti a gorilla who saved a boy's life after he fell into the gorilla cage at the Chicago Zoo but even before minty there was a silverback gorilla named Jambo who made a heroic save of his own five year old Levin Merritt fell into the open air gorilla exhibit in Jersey zoo in England a giant silverback named Jambo comes over to investigate to the surprise of all on lookers Jambo takes up a defensive posture around the boy actually
blocking the unconscious child from the other gorillas jumbo gently strokes the boy's back until he regains consciousness the child screaming startles Jambo but instead of reacting violently jumbled guides the other girl is back to their inner enclosure helping clear the way rescuers jumbo nicknamed the gentle giant after the sense event has since passed away but a life-size bronze statue of Jambo still resides in the Jersey Zoo a hero named Thor Justin Ireland was working alone at Holly's gas station late one afternoon when a man approached the desk and asked to use the phone and Justin
refused the man suddenly pulled a gun and demanded the cash from the store's register when he refused the man pushed him Justin's dog Thor who was resting at his feet sprang into action [Music] Justin Ireland said that his dog has never shown any violent tendencies before and is actually very friendly with gas station patrons until that moment he had no idea how the dog might react in a threatening situation [Music] little elephant egg heart we've all seen clips of elephants rescuing their young from the water like this video from the elephant habitat at the seoul
grand park zoo in south korea [Music] [Music] this clip from the elephant nature park in Thailand shows that the heroic mercy of elephants is not limited to their own species an elephant named Kamla rushes to the rescue of her favorite caretaker Derek when she believes he might be drowning in the river [Applause] [Applause] you can see more of this charitable groups work at save elephant org an organization dedicated to saving and protecting Asian elephants buddy saves the house in Heinrichs was in his garage workshop when a heater exploded sending the building up in flames local
authorities received a report of the blaze but could not find the remote Alaskan residents amongst the 75 miles of winding forest roads then suddenly one of the state troopers spotted buddy a Heinrichs family dog going purely on instinct the trooper decided to follow the dog sure enough but he led the trooper right to the site of the raging fire [Music] because of buddy's guidance the trooper was able to radio in firefighters the garage was total but the Heinrichs house was saved and only received a slight scorching on some of the window trim but he was
honored by the town of Anchorage Alaska for his heroics and received an engraved stainless steel dog bowl from the Alaska State Troopers honestly I don't know why what had happened if it wasn't for him I don't want to imagine what could have happened we would have lost everything and horribly more damage would have been done to the neighborhood if it wasn't for my dog [Music] [Music]
