Woman Rescues Doe With Jug Stuck on Her Head

Occurred on November 4, 2023 / Sullivan, Illinois, USA

Info from Licensor: "We saw this deer with something on its head, which turned out to be a 5-gallon jug. It was clearly not acting normally. We knew it needed help and my daughter-in-law approached it as quietly and slowly as possible so as not to scare it into running. It was clear to her that she had been in distress for a while from marks the jug had made on her coat. We were so relieved and pleased to rescue the doe from her entrapment. She could have caused a wreck as she had crossed a road before we had noticed her.
This occurred on our property, located adjacent to State of Illinois Corps property and Lake Shelbyville, Illinois."
