Cows stuck on tiny plateau waiting for rescue after NZ quakes

The massive earthquakes in New Zealand yesterday did not just affect its human residents.

In a startling footage captured by Newshub shows two cows and a calf being stranded on a tiny plateau following landslides that happened at the north of the town of Kaikoura, reports Mashable.

It is a miracle that the cows came out unscathed.

"That is amazing," one of the helicopter's passengers could be heard saying.

This is possibly the most New Zealand image of all time. An island. Cows. Earthquakes. https://t.co/EG3BXrAb5r

However, the question remains on how they are going to get off the plateau.

The poor things cannot move and need to be rescued immediately. 

Let's hope their generous human neighbours will find a way to bring them down safely. They surely have the technology.

What makes New Zealand great as a country is that you know for damn sure they're gonna go get those cows. #eqnz https://t.co/4Jy5DVL9yz
