Rising floodwaters swept over the land, and a storm surge carried a group of horses and cows out to sea.
To the surprise of residents and national park officials, three of those cows were recently discovered at the Cape Lookout National Seashore park on the Outer Banks.
The cattle are believed to have arrived at the federal park by swimming at least 3.2km across the Core Sound from Cedar Island, according to a park spokesman, B.G. Horvat. He said that the cows' caretaker, Woody Hancock, had identified them as being from Cedar Island.
"If the cows could talk, imagine the story they could tell you of enduring that rush of water," he added. "That must be incredible."

Например, мой дядя из этой истории сделал бы отличный тост. Он бы сказал что-то вроде: "Так выпьем же за [вот тут он бы нашел какое-то прилагательное, которое бы подчеркивало волю к жизни] коров, унесенных в море ураганом. Потому что если даже [тут он бы сказал что-то про стадо и неволю] эти коровы смогли найти в себе силы и доплыть до острова, то и в нашей жизни еще не все потеряно."
Спасибо, коровы!
