Wildlife officers successfully stepped in to rescue of baby deer found wedged between the bars of a fence on British Columbia.
The fawn was found stuck between the bars of a fence in Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, the B.C. Conservation Officer Service announced Thursday.
Wildlife officers intervened to give it some “wiggle” room.
“It’s not uncommon for fawns & deer to become tangled up in objects, such as fencing or netting,” the province tweeted.

But some helping hands freed the young deer.
“It walked away shortly after,” wildlife officers added.
