Animal control officers rescue deer stuck in rope swing

Berrien County Animal Control shared video of officers rescuing a buck that had gotten tangled in an old rope swing.

“I received a call to assist St. Joe City Police Dept. with a large buck that had gotten himself tangled within an old rope swing. Upon arrival, the buck managed to really get himself stuck, he dug himself a hole, literally and figuratively. He was REALLY worked up and buried deep in muck. After about 20 minutes of hands on involvement and the help of the other crews , we managed to calm him down, control his body, and set him free, the buck was unharmed,” Officer M. Kuntz said.
