Yesterday night (Wednesday) at around 6pm, the teams participated in Queen Street, Horncastle to reports of an iguana up a tree.

The teams utilized a 9metre ladder, 2 triple brief extension ladders, chimney rods, salvage sheets, rope rescue equipment and a regional tree cosmetic surgeon to effectively rescue the iguana, called Einstein, from the tree.

A representative for the fire service said: “A busy day for Horncastle crew today, and then we finished off with a small animal rescue – but to our surprise, not what we were expecting we got to meet the lovely Einstein the iguana who got himself stuck up a very large tree.
