This is the dramatic moment a team of brave cavers took on an epic rescue mission after a sheep fell down a 90ft drop.
William Burnett, Chris Arthur and Ami Stidolph fashioned a makeshift sling out of their ropes to lift the female sheep to safety on Sunday.
The three cavers were exploring one of their favourite underground routes when Mr Arthur spotted the animal from above.
The sheep had taken a huge tumble as the group had descended around 90ft into the cave before spotting the helpless animal.
What started as a nice day out at New Rift Pot, Masongill, North Yorkshire, suddenly turned into an hour and a half rescue mission to save the sheep they named Beryl.
