Jason Harschbarger heard a horse making noises on the hill above his home Pullman, West Virginia, and found a horse resembed the image of Winnie the Pooh getting stuck in the honey tree.

The young filly was unable to free itself and needed to be freed from the tree with a chainsaw.

Harschbarger, who was able to take a few photographs before cutting the tree, said she escaped with just a few minor injuries.

He said: "She has a few cuts on her face and ear. Last I heard her jaw was a little dislocated but I think it is healing up and she can eat on her own again."

It remains unclear why Gracie, as the horse is called, put her head into the gap.
