A man was airlifted to hospital after he became stuck under a pregnant cow.
He had been helping the animal during a difficult birth at a farm in Shropshire when the cow fell out of a hoist and on top of him, leaving him trapped.
An ambulance crew were called to the farm in Loughton and decided that he should be airlifted hospital because he was in so much pain.
The man, who is in his 40s, suffered a suspected broken leg. The condition of the cow is not known.
Her calf was delivered successfully, however.
