Fawn Rescue

Occurred on May 14, 2017 / Livonia, New York, USA

Info from Licensor: "On Mother's Day, I took my mom out to breakfast, then took her home. Dad needed me to help move a large piece of furniture to our satellite garage set back off the road about 100 yards. We drove back there, moved the furniture, and heard a sound coming from a fence row. I thought maybe a neighbors baby goat got lost? We walked in the woods to find a fawn bleating over and over to her mommy. She was helplessly stuck rump first in a groundhog hole. We tried to pull her out, but couldn't without harming her, so dad took the truck to the house to get a shovel so we could dig her out. He came back with my mom (she recorded as were digging). We freed the fawn from the hole and she was so weak, so mom fed her some milk from a turkey baster. As we fed, we saw mommy running our way, so we took off. Later, we checked out the scene. There were mommy tracks and baby tracks heading off to the woods."
