The deer were in danger of drowning, and then the gamekeepers came

Two game wardens are in The US state of Alaska They have become animal life savers. The two men picked up two deer swimming in the sea in their boat and brought the completely exhausted animals to shore. Sergeants Mark Fences and Kyle Fueg were returning from patrol in the town of Ketchikan on Revillagigedo Island when Artiodactyl A spokesman for the authority told the Associated Press news agency. The deer were more than four miles from the nearest island in the Inside Passage, a sea route off the coasts of Alaska and Canada.

Vinces filmed the unusual encounter on his cell phone. They are far away in the Clarence Strait and the animals are “in bad shape,” he says in the video posted on social media. It seems as if they can’t stay afloat much longer. It’s common for deer to swim from one island to another off the coast of Alaska, but these two appear to have drifted apart.

The gamekeeper also had to get into the water

Game wardens They stopped the ten-meter patrol boat and turned off the engines so as not to frighten the animals. When the deer reached the boat, they banged their heads on it and then climbed the swimming step with the help of rescuers. When the wildebeest arrived on the boat, they were shivering from the cold. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the average water temperature in Ketchikan in October is 10.2 degrees Celsius.

“I’m soaked to the bone,” Vincez says later in the video. He had to carry the animals from the deck to the shore. At first, they could barely stand, but then they rushed away, according to authorities.
