Pet Story

According to foreign media reports, an Australian man and his dog were found and rescued by a Mexican fishing boat after drifting at sea for about three months.

According to Reuters, on the 18th local time, 54-year-old Timothy Lyndsay Shaddock finally landed on land. In April, Saddock set sail from the Bolivian city of La Paz with his dog Bella, planning a trip to French Polynesia. However, he encountered a storm on the way, which damaged his ship and the communication equipment on the ship. As a result, Shaddock was unable to call for help and could only drift.

Shaddock said, "I am very grateful. I survived."

According to reports, Mexican fishing boats discovered Saddock and took him to the Mexican port city of Manzanillo. The fishing vessel belongs to the Mexican fishing company Grupomar, which announced the discovery of Saddock on Twitter on the 17th local time. Shadock expressed his gratitude to the captain of the fishing boat and the Grupomar company for saving him.

It is reported that Shadock kept himself and Bella alive by fishing and eating raw fish during the journey, but his physical condition was not optimistic after the storm. According to Shadock, Bella was picked up during his trip to Mexico and gave him a lot of companionship during the rafting trip.

Shadock said that although he had just escaped death, he would "still go to sea" in the future. "I don't know how long it will take before I go to sea again, but you know, I just love nature."
