The wild stallion named Champ and his family were enjoying their meal on the Salt River's bank when another group of horses appeared on the opposite bank.

However, the river’s current was too strong for a young filly horse. Within seconds, she found herself swallowed by the rapid river and came to the surface in a panic. Luckily, Champ was there to save her. He tried to grab her by the back of her neck, held her gently, and protected her until she reached the banks on the other side of the river and headed straight to her mother. Champ then returned to his family and the herd continued on their way.
