One New Jersey transit cop is being hailed as a hero after rescuing a man who had become trapped on the train tracks. The cop jumped into action when he heard the train rapidly approaching. You can clearly see the officer trying to pull this man to safety in the following video, since he wasn’t able or was choosing not to move on his own. It is unclear whether this was an accident that led to injury or an attempted suicide. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBP_ATF’); }); Whatever the case might have been, this officer went above and beyond to protect and serve.

Based on this video, I know one dog that’s getting an extra biscuit tonight. Even when this autism service dog is playing outside with the family, the intelligent pup is on high alert. When the child with autism started running toward the street, his canine companion sprung into action to ensure that he didn’t get hurt. Check out the quick-thinking pooch’s skills in the video below! Now that’s one seriously good dog. We often underestimate animals’ abilities, but videos like this one prove that we need to give so much credit to the brilliant service animals that keep millions of people happy and safe around the world.

A family was out walking one day when they came across a momma duck with just one baby. Thinking it odd to see a solo duckling, they began looking for more babies…but they were nowhere to be found! That is until they heard desperate cries for help coming from a nearby drain pipe. Down in the depths staring back up at them were multiple ducklings trapped and clinging to life. They knew they had to help, but there was just one problem…no one had skinny enough arms to reach the little guys. That was when they got some help, calling a friend’s daughter to the scene to save the day. (via LittleThings) Thanks to six-year-old Mia, all but one of the ducklings were saved. They’ll get the chance to live full and happy lives. What a wonderful little hero! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/saving-ducklings-rescue/
Living in total misery, two young pit bulls named Lois and Clark lived under a truck until fairly recently. Starving and in desperate need of medical attention, they weren’t going to last much longer in that state. That’s when a few volunteers from Hope for Paws heard about their situation and decided that enough was enough. They struggled a bit at first, but after some coaxing, they were able to wrangle the terrified pups. When they started warming up to rescuers, the adorable pair revealed that they were actually big softies. Lois and Clark are now looking for a forever home, and the folks at Hope for Paws really want to find a family that will let them stay together. If you’d like to help them, please consider sharing their story and directing people in the Los Angeles area to the shelter. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/homeless-pit-bulls/
