Four young deer saved by fishing boat

Four young deer saved by fishing boat, article.


Pretty bright of them to think that the boat and people might be salvation. Most animals in danger are just in mindless panic.

Did you get that from all your wilderness experience?

I wonder how far from shore the deer were when they encountered the boat?

Must have been a ways, I guess.

I wonder what happened. Perhaps a bear or something on shore scared them to swim into the ocean.

Seems there's an update on this, re: an auction for charity, from the people who own the boat (in Alaska) that these deer caught a ride on. It would be interesting for find out how far out in the water they were. Like you say, Eo, surely must have been a way out for them to have done something like that.
