Brave fishermen risk their lives to save a deer stuck in a frozen lake

They were good at fishing, but it turned out to be an animal rescue. Branson and his best friend were on an ice fishing trip to Pangich Lake when they came across a kitten in need of help. The helpless creature could not move and was stuck on thin ice. But Jackson risked his life to save the poor man. His friend captured the moment on camera.

Although it looks pretty clear in the footage, the fishermen didn’t know what to expect. The ice was thin, and the deer were very scared, so they could easily get hurt, making the situation worse. But Jackson decided to take the risk to save the grieving animal.

“We slowly started our way there, at some point his boot broke the ice. So it was very subtle, but I thought. «We can’t let that deer sit there.»

Unable to stand, the deer looked exhausted as two men approached him. But when they got to him, they could not imagine how he would react. But Jackson tried to calm her down by lifting her gently in his arms. But the rescue was not over yet, the ice under their weight began to crack.

«I was like, ‘Dude, this might hit me if I try to take him,'» said the firefighter. , I thought. «I was just in a hurry, ran ashore, and hoped for the best.»

Luckily, as soon as they reached the shore, Jackson dropped the one-year-old deer to the ground and it got lost in the wild. The mission was accomplished thanks to these two heroes.
