Brazil floods: Animals stranded, families displaced as heavy rains continue
Rio Grande do Sul continues to be battered by heavy rains after catastrophic flooding swept Brazil’s southernmost state last week, leaving not just tens of thousands of people displaced, but animals stranded, too.
In Canoas, a single horse, which footage showed trapped on the roof of a building, has been captured, while rescuers worked to save dozens of dogs trapped in a building in the state capital of Porto Alegre.
One Porto Alegre family relocated completely to a shelter on an overpass, while a man in Eldorado do Sul has been using his wheel loader to transport displaced residents and family to safety.
More than 155,000 people have been left homeless, without food or water amid the floods. As of Wednesday, 131 people are still unaccounted for and 90 have died, according to the state’s civil defence agency.
Though regional rain is predicted to let up on Thursday, more is forecasted over the weekend.
