鹿頭卡大紅塑膠罐5天又渴又餓 他撲上拍掉還自由被猛踹

寵物小組／綜合報導

美國長島一隻鹿頭上照著紅色塑膠桶，卡住已經好幾天了，無法進食、喝水也看不清楚眼前，牠的身體越來越虛弱，而動物救援隊Strong Island Animal Rescue League的志工們決定要救牠。

這頭鹿帶著罐子到處閒晃，許多人都曾目擊，但沒有人能夠抓住幫牠脫困，就在救援行動第五天傳來好消息，其中一名救援志工Frankie突然接到朋友來電，對方說那頭鹿就在自家院子裡，團隊收到消息後從各處聚集參與救援。

由於已經多天沒進食也沒喝水，鹿已經非常虛弱，但牠仍非常警戒，為了作戰成功，Frankie從一旁悄聲偷看，接著直接撲到鹿身上瞬間拆掉桶子。鹿被突如其來的「攻擊」嚇壞了，幾秒鐘才發現自己總算重獲自由，趕緊找縫隙往外奔去。

Frankie表示，鹿已經被卡住第五天了，「沒人知道明天會是死是活，所以當下我必須做決定，幸好一切都值得了。」他也認為幸好現在是冬天，如果是夏天，這頭鹿更容易窒息或呼吸困難。他也提醒，最重要的是人們使用完容器應該洗淨、分類，以免無辜的動物受害。

For days multiple rescuers and rescues from Long Island had gotten together to help a full grown doe with a pretzel bucket on her head in Rocky Point. Days without food and water meant a slow death of starvation and dehydration. This morning Frankie received a text from his friend saying the deer was in his yard! It’s a small world on Long Island! A few Strong Island members went to the address along with other rescuers. Frankie saw his window of opportunity and moved in. The deer attempted to flee but Frankie briefly overpowered her and removed the bucket. She took off like a bullet and is now able to eat and drink freely. We are eternally grateful to see the unity among rescuers and the support everyone shows. Thank you so much to everyone who helped out. This was a huge success for this animal. PLEASE! When recycling put the lid on all containers! Animals lives depend on it! We are 100% volunteers and rely on the donations from the public to continue our work.
