A Deaf Man From Minnesota Rescues Doe From Icy River (Video)

A Deaf Man From Minnesota Rescues Doe From Icy River (Video)

January 1, 2016

A video (below) has been uploaded showing a deaf man in Minnesota who jeopardized his own life to save a deer he saw writhing in an icy river.

The anonymous man hiked through woods and crept over ice to rescue the deer, which he affectionately named Miss Ice River.

The video, which was posted on video-sharing site Vimeo, shows the man petting the doe after he saved the animal at Kettle River in Minnesota as he cautiously tries to eliminate icicles from its pelt, Daily Mail reports.

He describes in sign language that he was driving along when he witnessed the doe struggling to survive, according to Inside Edition.

Hope his kindness will be returned to him, although there's no doubt he felt rewarded in saving this doe. What can be done to clone this man a million times?
