Received this in an email, really cute. video clip link at bottom of the story:
On the Morning of May 18th 2011, my wife noticed a deer in our yard that
appeared to be frantically looking for something in the rocks that form a wall on
our property line in... Brush Prairie, WA .
When we first went out with our neighbors, we didn't see anything, but the
deer wouldn't leave our yard. We went back to our house and watched, after a few
minutes the deer came back.We went out to the area the deer was concentrating on and
could hear a baby fawn crying in the rocks.
We moved some of the rocks and smaller boulders and saw a baby fawn's face
among the rocks. He had apparently fallen into a crawl through in one of the gaps and was
now trapped. The larger boulders were too heavy to move and we didn't want to have the
rocks cave in on the baby deer.
We finally called our Clark County Fire District 3. The B Shift team came
out and they were able to move the larger rocks out of the way with the Jaws of Life; enough to be able
to reach in and pull the baby fawn out and reunited it with its momma.
The fawn was probably stuck in there most of the night and quickly went to
nurse off its momma.
One of our neighbors took some video clips of the fire department's
rescue. I edited the clips into this short clip.
After sharing it with some friends they thought that it was just too cute
not to share with more people so my neighbors agreed to let me upload the final clip.
