A woman fleeing a wildfire in northern California knew she couldn't leave her horses, so she did what she had to do to get them to safety. 

Lauren Mesaro has three horse, but her trailer only fit two. Her solution? She put the third one in the backseat of her car.

Mesaro's sister-in-law posted the photo on Facebook of the pony, Stardust, in the backseat of Mesaro's 2001 Honda Accord. The picture has since gone viral.

As for the horses, they are safely waiting out the fire at a ranch.
