When 3-year-old Aurora Kyle went missing from her home in Queensland, Australia, a search and rescue team was deployed to track her down. After a 15-hour-long hunt, Aurora was found safe and sound, but the team had an unlikely hero to thank for it: Aurora’s deaf, visually impaired senior cattle dog, Max.
Aurora was reported missing by her grandmother on April 20, 2018; she had strayed almost 2 kilometers from her home into Queensland’s rugged Southern Downs bushland. “It was cold, it was cold and raining,” said State Emergency Service (SES) area controller Ian Phipps, speaking to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
