Rescue

Rescue is the act of saving someone or something from danger or harm. Rescue can involve a wide range of situations and contexts, such as saving someone from a burning building, providing medical care to an injured person, or rescuing an animal from cruelty or neglect. Rescue can be carried out by individuals, groups, or organizations, such as rescue teams, emergency services, or animal welfare organizations. The goal of rescue is to provide immediate assistance and support to those in need, and to help them recover from the danger or situation they were facing.
