Russian Icebreaker Ship Rescues Dog From Arctic Iceberg

Russian sailors conducted an unusual animal rescue last week, when they retrieved a dog from an iceberg. The crew of an icebreaker near the Arctic noticed the fluffy white pup, stranded on some sea ice. They lowered a ladder and called to her. The canine came in from the cold, and warmed up aboard the ship. The crew then called around, and were able to locate her owner. The dog -- a 1-year-old named Aika -- had wandered off from a Russian town near the Arctic Circle the week before.
