United States 02/09/2013 08:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Adorable Baby Deer Rescued From Icy Waters By LI,NY Cops Marine Bureau officers Robert Femia and Peter Bogachunas noticed the fawn in the icy waters off Davis Park Marina in Fire Island approximately 30-yards from shore around 1:04 p.m. on Thursday. They pulled it from the water, which was seven to eight feet deep, onto the boat and covered it with a blanket: "The deer was not moving and appeared to be in shock." A family of deer came over and started to lick the baby deer and it slowly started to move around. The officers guided the injured deer to the police booth and fed it popcorn. The deer became more alert and ran off with the other deer." [ link to gothamist.com]  |

Wonder haw the deer got that far out from shore AND, what was Mama thinking/doing all this time ?
Rare that salt water freezes over, especially with breakers coming in to shore. Did the 'bad' policemen scare it out there ? Guess we will never know.
