A man in Florida was out duck hunting recently, when he discovered a sawfish that was in a bit of trouble. He made some phone calls to figure out what should be done, and documented the rescue on his Facebook page.

Good work, Jason. It’s a good thing you went duck hunting this morning, and noticed this awesome creature was in trouble. Even better that you were able to help, and send her back on her way. Good stuff!
