A third-generation farmer from Indiana recently saved the life of a newborn baby calf from freezing to death.

Dean Gangwer takes care of more than 100 cattle at his farm where he missed the birth of the newest addition to his giant family.

When Gangwer realized the mother delivered and left her newborn calf in the snow, he nursed the calf (now named Leroy) back to health unconventionally with a hot tub bath!
