Last December, Matsi, an 8-year-old horse, found herself stuck in an underground space beneath an empty rice silo in a small agricultural community outside of Davis. When Yolo County Animal Services called the UC Davis Equine Field Service for help, their team of veterinarians, technicians, and fourth-year veterinary students jumped into action. Collaborating with rescue teams, they devised a plan to lift Matsi safely from the silo.
