One goat is lucky to be free after a pair of railway workers noticed it was nearly buried alive.

A pair of Austrian Federal Railway workers were clearing snow from the tracks when a goat suddenly showed up. It bounded onto the tracks as a snowplow was heading toward it.

Then, it jumped off to the side. The plow passed, dumping the snow on top of the goat up to its horns.

The men quickly rushed to stop the plow and help free the animal, carefully digging so they would not hurt it.

The goat scampered away after it was freed.
