It reads, “Our latest #wildlife #rescue, by @COParksWildlife Officer Cassidy English, is a buck that stumbled into carelessly hung holiday lights in #ColoradoSprings. The deer thrashed so long and hard the lights were knotted around its antlers, in its mouth and around its neck”.
Take a look at the share:
In a subsequent tweet, the account shared a picture of buck before and after the rescue with some advisory text. It read, “This buck’s vision was obscured making it vulnerable around cars. With wires wrapped in its mouth, it likely couldn’t eat or drink. It might have starved. Had it jumped a fence, the cords might have gotten caught and hung the animal. Please decorate with #wildlife in mind”.
