If you see a rare animal, one classified as vulnerable, standing in front of you, what would you do? Personally, I’d grab a camera or a phone and take a picture as a keepsake! That’s what Milton Rodrigues, a trucker from Santa Helena de Goiás, Brazil, did when he saw a maned wolf cross the road in front of him.
Rodrigues stopped to get off and take a picture of the majestic creature, but was instead surprised as the wolf staggered forward and collapsed underneath his truck instead. With the temperature reaching 104°F, it was likely that the wolf had become dehydrated and exhausted due to the heat. So Rodrigues stops to help it, giving it some water that he pours into his mouth. The wolf happily laps up all that he can.
Take a look at this video!
The water did the trick, and it wasn’t long before the wolf sprung to his feet and took off into the woods. I’m sure he was very grateful! Share away, people!
