Saved a Fawn today ====
8am and I am walking our 2 acres pasture fence looking for any damage. Suddenly I hear the cry of a whitetail fawn. As I approach the crying I see and hear an adult female slowly leaving the immediate area and "whistling" as if saying "follow me" .. I knew better than to do that since I still heard the fawn crying. Suddenly I spotted the poor thing. It had it's left hind leg caught in the neighbor's pasture fence and could not escape. It tried harder and harder to run as I approached, but it was definitely not going anywhere with that left leg caught. I slowly approached saw where the wires had the leg tightly bound and slipped a finger in and slowly pull as hard as I could to unhook the wire from around the leg, there was no blood or any damage that I could see. As the wire started to bend the fawn quit crying for its Mom. It must have realized I was setting it free, one more pull on the wire and the leg was free. The fawn took off bounding across our pasture and into the woods. Within 2 minutes I heard the female snort and what I thought was a foot stomping on the ground where the fawn ran into the woods. ..., I guess she was saying THANK YOU .... great experience .. Fawn will (I guess) never really know how lucky it was to cry out.... It would have died for sure as tight as the wire was around that leg and as hard as it was pulling when I first saw it... GOOD START TO A GOOD DAY !!!!
