Jonas Lundh was out in the freezing cold wilderness when he suddenly got a really bad feeling in his stomach. He had been out with his dog, Rocky, earlier that morning but hadn't seen his pooch for a bit.
The 4-year-old dog had been trailing some moose that had crossed a lake; the large animals have been causing a lot of problems in Sweden and have been wrecking havoc with the natural ecosystem and food chain.
Even the anti-hunting green government of Sweden has been promoting seasonal moose hunting in order to maintain a healthy balance.
So when Jonas came to the nearby lake he was horrified to see his dog struggling in the ice cold water. But 26-year-old Jonas didn't hesitate to act, he instantly jumped right into the deadly water and began to swim to his best friend!
The second Jonas jumped into the water his whole body began to lose heat. As he paddled toward his dying dog, he became very aware of his own body and kept telling himself just to keep breathing. "This could be a life or death situation," he said.
All he could think of was that poor Rocky was tiring in the freezing water and was only minutes away from certain death. Thankfully, he finally grabbed a hold of his dog and dragged him to the safety of the island.
At that point he began to scream for help.
