The incident was shared on Berrien County Animal Control’s official Facebook profile. “BCAC Officer M. Kuntz takes the lead, to help rescue a local furry friend!” reads the opening lines of the post. The share further describes the story in form of a quote from the lead officer.

“I received a call to assist St. Joe City Police Dept. with a large buck that had gotten himself tangled within an old rope swing. Upon arrival, the buck managed to really get himself stuck, he dug himself a hole, literally and figuratively. He was REALLY worked up and buried deep in muck. After about 20 minutes of hands on involvement and the help of the other crew, we managed to calm him down, control his body, and set him free, the buck was unharmed!", it reads.

The post is complete with a YouTube video link which shows the entire rescue. The caption of the YouTube video also describes the incident in brief.

“BCAC does it all! Amazing rescue!” wrote a Facebook user. “Awesome job,” shared another.
