Something similar happened to me 7 years back. I found a baby moose caught in the fence, no sign of momma so I worked and got her free. She walked along with me for half a mile. Then 2 years later she came to my place in the spring, had scars on her legs from the fence... in tow was her new baby. She was showing him off. They visit frequently. Animals are far brighter and more grateful than most people.
FACTS!!! Most people are ungrateful unfriendly tools! Definitely have more brain power than a lot of humans!!! That's great she came back with her little one to show her off. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story.
I understand..more than 2 decades of walking with deer has taught, untaught/relearned quite a few things.. our world is a greater blessing than we find commonly accepted..🥰👍
That's so rare for a deer to allow humans to touch one of them like that. I'm sure these guys realized how great the reward was that they were receiving for their act of kindness. They're very lucky in my opinion.

I would likewise have tried to help the deer. Hunter or not, it would just strike me as being morally "wrong" to just kill the deer when it was trapped and helpless like this.
@@kippertrace5808 some states require a certain number of square inches of "hunter orange"to be worn while hunting. Deer don't see color the same as us. But you did click.
@@kippertrace5808 in my state it's a law you have to wear expect waterfowl season, 1. if one see you're not wearing you're a poachers 2. It's for your safety and the other safety especially in huge state forest area 3. You can get a fine also worse get shot at by another hunter because they didn't see you at 100 plus yard in dense forest
@Dave_Br Well I’d hope it isn’t. I believe the majority of people are good. I can’t see any signs of this being “staged” lol, so go ahead and show me the signs.
@Dave_BrI'd assume this is real because deer get caught in fences all the time, I'm not even sure how they'd stage something like this with such a large animal. Theyd have to catch it then secure it's leg to the top of the fence without hurting it or getting stomped. Ik what you're talking about though which is why I'm always wary of those online animal 'rescue' videos. Most of the time it is cats and dogs bc they're easy for anyone to access and they can't fight back :( also when they have multiple rescue videos uploaded. No person randomly stumbles across multiple cats and dogs in need of saving. Hunters coming across a deer in the woods is super normal lol.
@@jonathanyates5198 Stop being a troll! Grow up dude. You couldn't come up with something a little better my guy? How elementary of you my dear Watson.
@Kippertrace it's the law. If you're on a public lease, you have to wear one. Deer can't see orange. But other hunters can. It's for safety. I've stumbled upon deer in need of help. I get them going again and walk away. You don't want a deer to get used to you. It's doesn't give them a fair chance to survive. I usually carry paint in case I find one like that, so I can tag it so it doesn't get shot. It's unethical to harvest a creature that's not tip-top.
@@dethtour 👍 is that true? It makes sense then. But, I hunt, only on my own land in England, can you explain why we bother to dress in camo gear because deer have far superior sense of hearing, sight and most important...smell. I tend to see and get closest to roe deer mainly, when just rambling about in casual clothes. Dress in my belstaffs...not a bloody thing for days.😁
@Kippertrace it all depends on your local laws. Here in the USA, it differs from state to state. The vest it only for deer hunting, and it's only during season. Like for duck, bear, elk, and other game, you don't wear one. If you rent out your private lease to go hunt, you don't need one either.
More kind hunters. I smile when I see such kindness shown to the animals around us. Unfortunately some people don't have the morals of these folks. I hope those unsavory sorts are the minority. Increasingly I see hunters helping those around them and supporting nature and I think RUclips helps with that. Thank you for that, and for enlightening folks like me to what you're really about.
most hunters would do this. Hunting for most is about embracing nature. being in it and apart of it. When hunters do shoot animals they focus on quick kills that minimize suffering. Hunters are conservationists at heart who love nature and have a great appreciation for the animals they hunt.
@@zackeryhardy9504 Yes, I discovered that through videos like this on RUclips and I was very glad for it. =) As it turns out, my qualms have been with things like trophy hunting (folks who don't even use the animal; very sad), denning, and those unsavory practices like chasing animals from helicopters (though perhaps this was outlawed by now, who knows; I stopped following it. This was a wolf hunting issue in Alaska iirc). Trophy hunting is the most common of those. But real hunters aren't wasteful like that even if they do have something taxidermied. They don't just take a photo and head and go. They use everything they can and that's rad.
While I never got into hunting I had many friends and relatives that did and I always respected their choice and right to hunt. It was very heart warming to see these guys help this defenseless animal and see the deers grateful reaction.
Almost all hunters eat the deer. Its not just hunting to kill something. Also hunting stops over population and almost all funding for national parks are paid for by hunting tags and tax on ammo.
@@bradjayson4872 but they're not. That's the equivalent of saying that another dude shooting someone, even if the other dude had a gun, saying he was defenseless because he didn't know he was about to get shot.
@@MD-ex7cg there's no way it could impaled them in that position.. the poor thing was scared and probably facing this situation for the 1st time. And the fact that deer still waited around and showed affection to those men says a lot.
Most of my best hunting stories/memories have nothing with actually harvesting an animal. When you can share nature with any wild animal like this, it's something you never forget. Now that I live and hunt in Alaska where most big game can kill you, it makes it even more special.
Most animals have enough cognitive abilities to distinguish friend from foe. Most of them have the ability to realize you're helping them. And finally most social animals have the ability to show the affection to their saviour (of curse a creature being able to do it doesn't necessarily mean it will)
The deer was shocked and distressed. It was trying its best to protect itself from them. You can see how it puts its ears back and licks its nose while trying as best it can to gore his hand. The animal is weak and shocked and distressed, not loving and appreciative. They are deeply ignorant animals that can't comprehend some of the most basic concepts... Like most of you apparently.
Loved this so much. It just makes you cry. Hunters do love animals, too. And have big hearts. My husband, a former hunter, now feeds them instead. Actually he feeds the squirrels, but the deer 🦌 show up, so extra food is put out. Nice to see kindness shown.
Beautiful!!! These are true hunters, men who have total respect for the animals they hunt!!! Thank u guys for helping this poor fellow!! He definitely appreciated it!! Great video!!
I don’t know what’s better the Deer enjoying the freedom & head-rub OR The Hunters smile after seeing how much the Deer was loving his affection ❤😎😎😎😎😎😎
It's incredibly rewarding to have the animal understand the person was helping them, even moreso for it to seek out a bit of friendship and bonding from the experience.
Aaawww! 🥰 You could see the Love in his pretty eyes! He was sooo grateful that the Hunters helped him!!😅 And he LOVED those head scratches too! Most horned animals (goats, deer, etc) LOVE getting scratched on their scalp between their antlers or horns!🥰 It's a spot that's not so easy for 'em to reach themselves! 😮😖 Thank You for Your Kindness! 🙏🏽😇🙏🏾 It made a beautiful heartwarming video! ❤❤❤❤
So awesome look how man can interact with wildlife ! Thank you guys! And you were rewarded for your kindness !! You blessed one of gods creatures and he blessed you
That is something else ! As a hunter myself I would have done the same thing. That was awesome. Even in my stand, I enjoy watching them as well as hunting them. Great clip guys. 👍👍
@@UpstatenyoutdooradventuresI think if you put a comma or period after the “No”, in your first comment, it’ll clear up any confusion others may have. I agree. Although I’ve never seen something quite like what this deer is doing, Animals do show gratitude. There’s a lovely video of a mother elephant in India raising her trunk to wave at individuals who saved her baby that was caught in a ditch.
That’s what we do !! It’s called ETHICS ❤. That buck knows ! If you understand the circle of life that was a lesson on it ! Proud to say they’re like me ! 🇺🇸
@@bungeechord1 I thought it was rhetorical and implying more. You should look up what rhetorical means. Something tells me you are not smart enough to know the word. Probably due to your lack of original insults and the fact you need to ask a completely unnecessary and stupid question Also the answer is no. But most people with a brain would realize this. If you have evidence that suggests otherwise speak up otherwise shut your mouth.
This is what hunting and being a sportsman is all about, not exactly sporting if a deer is injured and caught in a fence. Glad you were able to give him some nice head scratches as well, he definitely appreciated the help 🤗
Yep, although that’s one “sport” that should have been outlawed when humans no longer needed to hunt to survive. Now it’s just the pathetic act of human trash.
@@OCRay1 Hunting has it's place still. It is allowed for population control, deer meat is very healthy and very good, it also teaches critical survival skills. It teaches kids to respect wild animals and to not just kill to be killing because there is a limit on how many you can get.
@@OCRay1 as you gobble down chicken nuggies that came from a factory farm. You do realize that hunting is the most humane and ethical way to consume meat. Any life is better than one in a cage, and any natural death is more painful than a well placed gunshot. Not to mention hunters play a vital role in population control.
Extremely rare and unusual behaviour of a deer. Some people in the comments think it couldn't walk away. It it really wanted to run away it wouldn't stay that calm and would've tried to run any possible. But it stayed and wanted some love. Thank you ❤
That deer was definitely someone's pet, or raised by humans. It KNEW what a head scratchy was. Thank you to these gentlemen who helped him! Hopefully he went home and stayed out of trouble.
I was thinking the same thing probably a deer farm or something like what you're saying. The way it wasn't fighting and struggling to get away when they approached kind of gave it away. I once had a little button buck that got tangled up in some wildlife netting in my garden and ended up getting some scrapes and bruises getting that little guy free and he bolted as soon as he was freed lol.
When I was little we had one that came up to us and let us pet it for awhile then it got aggressive and dangerous to show dominance. It was at a state park I guess use to people feeding it?
@E duh Red I was on a Boy Scout trip at Stone Mountain in Northern Georgia and had a doe walk up to me and a couple of other Scouts. She loved all the petting she received from me and the other Scouts. That was a great trip!
Rutting bucks do some weird stuff sometimes, totally could've been a wild deer. Kind of looked to me like he was trying to have a bit of locking horns with them.
@@MOAB-UT What God watched me do is put meat in my freezer to feed my family. People have eaten animals for as long as there's been people and animals. Even during the time Jesus walked the earth. Did he condem them ? Get off your vegan high horse.
@@MOAB-UT what? Your damn God probably want it to happen, it's the way of life Jesus go touch grass or join in the hunt also, best you follow regulation or the game warden gonna own everything you brought that day, yes even your car, guns, clothes, everything you have on you
Let me say this about that. You are truly unique. Don't you realize that you have made a life long friend of another species. Wow I really am jealous of you all. I hope that someday I will be able to experience that connection with a wild species.
We need more of this kind of stuff in the world. Whether human or animal we are all in this world together and showing love and compassion is so important
Sounds crazy but the little dude just seems to be relieved and grateful to be alive. Probably realized for some reason he was going to get to live today, wanted bond for a minute for with the creatures that made that possible.
Those hunter's helping that deer was so uplifting and I say you guys are hero's . Thank you for doing the right thing and the deer felt the love when the hunter started scratching its head . Two thumbs up for the video 👍👍💯❤️🙏🏻😇😎✌️👋👍 God bless you and be safe out there in the woods . 💯👍
Very nice story there fellas. Good guys right there. I too would not shoot a trapped animal. I'd try to do same. They are food but at least give them a chance. These gentlemen did the right thing. Good job Guys!!! Cute little fella too 😉
At least give them a chance? Y’all sit in a tree or some crap.. wait for hours for some unsuspecting animal to walk by then shoot it.. I’d say most animals don’t really stand a chance. Go out and kill a big as deer with a knife and that’ll be something to respect.. hardest thing about hunting is sitting in the cold for hours.
@@LaughAtYourDemise I highly recommend watching content from the likes of Steve Rinella if you'd like to try a different perspective on hunting and conservation.
@@LaughAtYourDemise you see people in deer stands and think they're just sitting around because you have no grasp on the greater circumstances. You don't understand that they've been out there for months scouting out the area, looking for scat and tracks to find the best place to set up. Deer stand hunting is literally , 3 days of shooting, but 3 months of tracking and prep work
@@daltondrouillard9308 for me it does lol. And none of the meat I eat comes from a hunter so I don’t see your point. If you think the majority of hunters do it for food your kidding yourself. I’m not some animal rights advocate in a situation like this… I just find 0 sport in it.. no risk at all to the hunter, while the prey has no defense mechanism to help save it. The argument for over population is due to the fact we killed all their natural predators in many areas. So again, I find the majority of hunters pretty much border line sociopaths just looking for the fix of killing something behind the defense of “hunting” for food lol. I mean damn y’all cut off the head for a trophy? Pretty sick
@@Nikwunu Theres no point in indiscriminately killing an animal in need. Sure if you were hungry that would be an easy meal, but its not like this guy is in survival mode. In these cases it’s better to just help them out if possible and let them go breed.
@@hailey9117 you didnt defend your own argument about it being natural. of course every human needs to eat so it might as well be that buck. its practically placed on a golden platter.
@@Nikwunucountless examples of one species saving different kind of species from a predator or being trapped in a wild prove you wrong my dear american psycho 🙂. Doesnt get nore natural than that
@@Nikwunu I’m not arguing. Nor do I need to use something being natural or not as an argument. I’m just saying that this hunter demonstrated a respect for nature by using long-term thinking (letting a stuck animal go, better for the population) rather than short-term (mmm yummy meat now). Since he is hunting for sport and not survival, he is in the position to demonstrate such behavior. And that kind of thing is what separates us from the animals 👍🏻
@@junglejarred6366Yes. I also know that unless the cattle are raised on good farms, companies like Fairlife will continue unethical practices and the government will do nothing to stop them like you dips think they will. Grass fed is a lie when all they have to do is feed them grass at the first/last 3 months of life to put that claim on the package.
This was heartwarming! Love seeing a positive story about hunters. Many times you see fabricated stories to make a hunter out to be a bad guy/girl or there really are some people out there who give true hunters a bad wrap. Thank you for being good guys!

I would likewise have tried to help the deer. Hunter or not, it would just strike me as being morally "wrong" to just kill the deer when it was trapped and helpless like this.
These aren't hunters. Coats visible from space?? Come on....clickbait
@@kippertrace5808 some states require a certain number of square inches of "hunter orange"to be worn while hunting. Deer don't see color the same as us.
But you did click.
@@kippertrace5808 in my state it's a law you have to wear expect waterfowl season, 1. if one see you're not wearing you're a poachers 2. It's for your safety and the other safety especially in huge state forest area 3. You can get a fine also worse get shot at by another hunter because they didn't see you at 100 plus yard in dense forest
A proper hunter is one who has respect for animals.
@@xblunja8332 what’s that supposed to mean
“It is the hunter’s honor that he protects and preserves his game, hunts sportsmanlike, and honors the Creator in His creatures.”
@Dave_Br Well I’d hope it isn’t. I believe the majority of people are good. I can’t see any signs of this being “staged” lol, so go ahead and show me the signs.
@Dave_BrI'd assume this is real because deer get caught in fences all the time, I'm not even sure how they'd stage something like this with such a large animal. Theyd have to catch it then secure it's leg to the top of the fence without hurting it or getting stomped.
Ik what you're talking about though which is why I'm always wary of those online animal 'rescue' videos. Most of the time it is cats and dogs bc they're easy for anyone to access and they can't fight back :( also when they have multiple rescue videos uploaded. No person randomly stumbles across multiple cats and dogs in need of saving. Hunters coming across a deer in the woods is super normal lol.
I think if you’re hunting for food then vulnerable animals are fair game, but if it’s for fun then it’s cruel.
Thank you for helping deer in distress and having the respect for life .
This absolutely warmed my heart.
My heart just breaks for animals. They're truly so pure
Many people don't realize how loving animals are 😢
And so tasty
@@rlm9825 Not all wild animals are loving. They're wild animals! I wouldn't suggest you pet a wild Bear, wolf, badger, wolverine, shark, ect.
@@jonathanyates5198 Stop being a troll! Grow up dude. You couldn't come up with something a little better my guy? How elementary of you my dear Watson.
@@weirdmatter You must be a city boy.
This made my day! With all the pain and suffering the world is experiencing it’s healing to see this type of love and compassion!
You want to know the best part, I've been hunting my entire life and this is exactly how most hunters I know would act. Good one!
If so, would you be hunting in jackets visible from space?🤔
@Kippertrace it's the law. If you're on a public lease, you have to wear one. Deer can't see orange. But other hunters can. It's for safety. I've stumbled upon deer in need of help. I get them going again and walk away. You don't want a deer to get used to you. It's doesn't give them a fair chance to survive. I usually carry paint in case I find one like that, so I can tag it so it doesn't get shot. It's unethical to harvest a creature that's not tip-top.
@@dethtour 👍 is that true?
It makes sense then.
But, I hunt, only on my own land in England, can you explain why we bother to dress in camo gear because deer have far superior sense of hearing, sight and most important...smell.
I tend to see and get closest to roe deer mainly, when just rambling about in casual clothes.
Dress in my belstaffs...not a bloody thing for days.😁
@Kippertrace it all depends on your local laws. Here in the USA, it differs from state to state. The vest it only for deer hunting, and it's only during season. Like for duck, bear, elk, and other game, you don't wear one. If you rent out your private lease to go hunt, you don't need one either.
る@@kippertrace5808 😅😅
Awwwwwe! That was just precious! Nice job, guys!
THANK YOU. I have nothing but admiration and respect for you guys.
That’s how real hunters should be.
You just made my day.
More kind hunters. I smile when I see such kindness shown to the animals around us. Unfortunately some people don't have the morals of these folks. I hope those unsavory sorts are the minority. Increasingly I see hunters helping those around them and supporting nature and I think RUclips helps with that. Thank you for that, and for enlightening folks like me to what you're really about.
most hunters would do this. Hunting for most is about embracing nature. being in it and apart of it. When hunters do shoot animals they focus on quick kills that minimize suffering. Hunters are conservationists at heart who love nature and have a great appreciation for the animals they hunt.
@@zackeryhardy9504 Yes, I discovered that through videos like this on RUclips and I was very glad for it. =) As it turns out, my qualms have been with things like trophy hunting (folks who don't even use the animal; very sad), denning, and those unsavory practices like chasing animals from helicopters (though perhaps this was outlawed by now, who knows; I stopped following it. This was a wolf hunting issue in Alaska iirc). Trophy hunting is the most common of those. But real hunters aren't wasteful like that even if they do have something taxidermied. They don't just take a photo and head and go. They use everything they can and that's rad.
Oh wow ~ this encounter made me cry tears♥️ Thank you guys. What a beautiful creature he is❤
What else would the average human cry other than tears?
While I never got into hunting I had many friends and relatives that did and I always respected their choice and right to hunt. It was very heart warming to see these guys help this defenseless animal and see the deers grateful reaction.
Almost all hunters eat the deer. Its not just hunting to kill something. Also hunting stops over population and almost all funding for national parks are paid for by hunting tags and tax on ammo.
He's not really defenseless. He could've impaled their hands or arms with his antlers.
They are defenseless when their being killed with guns too
@@bradjayson4872 but they're not. That's the equivalent of saying that another dude shooting someone, even if the other dude had a gun, saying he was defenseless because he didn't know he was about to get shot.
@@MD-ex7cg there's no way it could impaled them in that position.. the poor thing was scared and probably facing this situation for the 1st time. And the fact that deer still waited around and showed affection to those men says a lot.
Most of my best hunting stories/memories have nothing with actually harvesting an animal.
When you can share nature with any wild animal like this, it's something you never forget.
Now that I live and hunt in Alaska where most big game can kill you, it makes it even more special.
Nice to see a decent Human being with compassion for God's creation bless you two Hunters.
You have humble and generous hearts gentlemen. Thank you for helping this little guy.
Till they shoot one or many to death
His antler's weren't big enough. He dodged a bullet this year. He probably won't be as lucky next year.
@@jh7589 they are food
Way to go gentlemen. Yall are good dudes.
Thank you for your kindness and helping this deer. Your what real men do. Thank you ❤️.
All the animals are so wonderful. They just need little bit of care and they shower their love on us. Thank you for rescuing it.
So BEAUTIFUL when a creature understands we're trying to help. Thank you guys. 😊
Most animals have enough cognitive abilities to distinguish friend from foe.
Most of them have the ability to realize you're helping them.
And finally most social animals have the ability to show the affection to their saviour (of curse a creature being able to do it doesn't necessarily mean it will)
Спилите эту решетку!
The deer was shocked and distressed. It was trying its best to protect itself from them.
You can see how it puts its ears back and licks its nose while trying as best it can to gore his hand.
The animal is weak and shocked and distressed, not loving and appreciative.
They are deeply ignorant animals that can't comprehend some of the most basic concepts... Like most of you apparently.
Amazing reaction.. But Only humans can reason..
@goodcitizen3780 That's stupid. If it felt threatened it would have run. It's literally a deer
Beautiful. Brings tears. Great job gentlemen
Well done Gents. Hunters like my father was and like I am. Respect nature. Take care of nature. Be a part of nature. Love nature.
When you give love you’re likely to receive love❤
That’s awesome the hunters saved the beautiful deer and the deer was so thankful. I just love that❤️
Its leg is broken and bone is out of skin…it will not survive
What a beautiful deer! Thank u for saving him. He was very appreciative .
The relief must have been immediate and immense ❤️
Люди заслужившие уважение!!!
Молодцы!!!
Потом они его застрелят.
Loved this so much. It just makes you cry. Hunters do love animals, too. And have big hearts. My husband, a former hunter, now feeds them instead. Actually he feeds the squirrels, but the deer 🦌 show up, so extra food is put out. Nice to see kindness shown.
Beautiful!!! These are true hunters, men who have total respect for the animals they hunt!!! Thank u guys for helping this poor fellow!! He definitely appreciated it!! Great video!!
I ragazzi hanno fatto il minimo indispensabile e sono stati ripagati dalla gratitudine del cervo.
I don’t know what’s better the Deer enjoying the freedom & head-rub
OR
The Hunters smile after seeing how much the Deer was loving his affection ❤😎😎😎😎😎😎
It's incredibly rewarding to have the animal understand the person was helping them, even moreso for it to seek out a bit of friendship and bonding from the experience.
Aaawww! 🥰 You could see the Love in his pretty eyes! He was sooo grateful that the Hunters helped him!!😅 And he LOVED those head scratches too! Most horned animals (goats, deer, etc) LOVE getting scratched on their scalp between their antlers or horns!🥰 It's a spot that's not so easy for 'em to reach themselves! 😮😖 Thank You for Your Kindness! 🙏🏽😇🙏🏾 It made a beautiful heartwarming video! ❤❤❤❤
Next year that Buck will be skinned and in someone’s freezer.
@@mrBDeye yup, it will be delicious.
💀
Next year the same hunters will kill it.
Awww bless him soooo cute. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
So awesome look how man can interact with wildlife ! Thank you guys! And you were rewarded for your kindness !! You blessed one of gods creatures and he blessed you
That is something else ! As a hunter myself I would have done the same thing. That was awesome. Even in my stand, I enjoy watching them as well as hunting them. Great clip guys. 👍👍
You Gentlemen Have My Utmost Respect. Makes Me Cry Happy Tears When I See This!! You Gentlemen Are Awesome, God Bless You!!
Aww how sweet is he.. thanking them for rescuing him. Beautiful thing to see.
Very unusual behavior for a deer... Thanks for saving him ❤
No alot of saved wild animals do these look up videos tons
@@Upstatenyoutdooradventures ????
@@Milesco alot of saved wild animals show acts of kindness after crazy look up videos
@@UpstatenyoutdooradventuresI think if you put a comma or period after the “No”, in your first comment, it’ll clear up any confusion others may have.
I agree. Although I’ve never seen something quite like what this deer is doing, Animals do show gratitude. There’s a lovely video of a mother elephant in India raising her trunk to wave at individuals who saved her baby that was caught in a ditch.
Probably used to humans from somewhere
Thank you for having ethic… God Bless you…
That’s what we do !! It’s called ETHICS ❤. That buck knows ! If you understand the circle of life that was a lesson on it ! Proud to say they’re like me ! 🇺🇸
“Oh those are the guys who rescued me! I’ll say hello!”
“It’s coming right for us!”
Best guys ever they made a friend for sure
Wow that’s awesome. That boy was so grateful, that literally brought tears to my eyes. Good job guys!
Lmao shut up
Then shot it and ate it?
@@bungeechord1Your comment was not made with brain but with pain.
Yo, Lamebrain, it was a question not a comment.
@@bungeechord1 I thought it was rhetorical and implying more. You should look up what rhetorical means. Something tells me you are not smart enough to know the word. Probably due to your lack of original insults and the fact you need to ask a completely unnecessary and stupid question
Also the answer is no. But most people with a brain would realize this. If you have evidence that suggests otherwise speak up otherwise shut your mouth.
OK, so I immediately started crying. This was precious 🦌
It had that same effect on me 😢❤
Same 😢
More of this love for animals is needed in our world today. Got real teary eyed.
This is what hunting and being a sportsman is all about, not exactly sporting if a deer is injured and caught in a fence. Glad you were able to give him some nice head scratches as well, he definitely appreciated the help 🤗
Yep, although that’s one “sport” that should have been outlawed when humans no longer needed to hunt to survive. Now it’s just the pathetic act of human trash.
@@OCRay1 Hunting has it's place still. It is allowed for population control, deer meat is very healthy and very good, it also teaches critical survival skills. It teaches kids to respect wild animals and to not just kill to be killing because there is a limit on how many you can get.
@RFeeOC You clearly don't remember a time when grocery stores were running out of food, but how could you? It was three whole years ago.
@@OCRay1 as you gobble down chicken nuggies that came from a factory farm. You do realize that hunting is the most humane and ethical way to consume meat. Any life is better than one in a cage, and any natural death is more painful than a well placed gunshot. Not to mention hunters play a vital role in population control.
@@OCRay1Well said. Just a load of people walking around with a gun killing defenceless animals. Sick in the head.
You guys did so great! That buck was being so grateful to both of you. Even animals can be kind. GOD bless y’all!❤👍🏻
Extremely rare and unusual behaviour of a deer. Some people in the comments think it couldn't walk away. It it really wanted to run away it wouldn't stay that calm and would've tried to run any possible.
But it stayed and wanted some love.
Thank you ❤
Young buck was saying thank you the only way he knew how. You guys are a class act. God was watching
Absolutely.
God watching them kill his ass next week too?
Amen, beautiful thing to see, and God was definitely in the hunters hearts for sure
That deer was definitely someone's pet, or raised by humans. It KNEW what a head scratchy was.
Thank you to these gentlemen who helped him! Hopefully he went home and stayed out of trouble.
I see you are a fellow deer whisperer
I was thinking the same thing probably a deer farm or something like what you're saying. The way it wasn't fighting and struggling to get away when they approached kind of gave it away. I once had a little button buck that got tangled up in some wildlife netting in my garden and ended up getting some scrapes and bruises getting that little guy free and he bolted as soon as he was freed lol.
When I was little we had one that came up to us and let us pet it for awhile then it got aggressive and dangerous to show dominance. It was at a state park I guess use to people feeding it?
@E duh Red I was on a Boy Scout trip at Stone Mountain in Northern Georgia and had a doe walk up to me and a couple of other Scouts. She loved all the petting she received from me and the other Scouts. That was a great trip!
Rutting bucks do some weird stuff sometimes, totally could've been a wild deer. Kind of looked to me like he was trying to have a bit of locking horns with them.
Have deer hunted my entire life. I've never seen anything that amazing before. Great job guys.
so you kill innocent souls your entire life. repent. all sinners will be held accountable by god- he is always watching.
@@MOAB-UT What God watched me do is put meat in my freezer to feed my family. People have eaten animals for as long as there's been people and animals. Even during the time Jesus walked the earth. Did he condem them ? Get off your vegan high horse.
@@stevekynard6658 AND...ruclips.net/video/04qBqCJlbC0/видео.html
@@MOAB-UT where do you think you get your dollar store meat from then?
@@MOAB-UT what? Your damn God probably want it to happen, it's the way of life Jesus go touch grass or join in the hunt also, best you follow regulation or the game warden gonna own everything you brought that day, yes even your car, guns, clothes, everything you have on you
Usually I’m a sceptic about that kind of footage, but I am blown away by the deer’s response. Very real to see. Good job guys!👍👍
Let me say this about that. You are truly unique. Don't you realize that you have made a life long friend of another species. Wow I really am jealous of you all. I hope that someday I will be able to experience that connection with a wild species.
Beautiful animal. So glad he was helped.
All animals understand love, pain, suffering, fear, happiness - everything. Please be kind to all animals.

We need more of this kind of stuff in the world. Whether human or animal we are all in this world together and showing love and compassion is so important
Sounds crazy but the little dude just seems to be relieved and grateful to be alive. Probably realized for some reason he was going to get to live today, wanted bond for a minute for with the creatures that made that possible.
Those hunter's helping that deer was so uplifting and I say you guys are hero's . Thank you for doing the right thing and the deer felt the love when the hunter started scratching its head . Two thumbs up for the video 👍👍💯❤️🙏🏻😇😎✌️👋👍 God bless you and be safe out there in the woods . 💯👍

Awe thank you for your kindness to that helpless animal,he truly appreciated it 😉
Yeah right 😂
Very nice story there fellas. Good guys right there. I too would not shoot a trapped animal. I'd try to do same. They are food but at least give them a chance. These gentlemen did the right thing. Good job Guys!!! Cute little fella too 😉
At least give them a chance? Y’all sit in a tree or some crap.. wait for hours for some unsuspecting animal to walk by then shoot it.. I’d say most animals don’t really stand a chance. Go out and kill a big as deer with a knife and that’ll be something to respect.. hardest thing about hunting is sitting in the cold for hours.
@@LaughAtYourDemise I highly recommend watching content from the likes of Steve Rinella if you'd like to try a different perspective on hunting and conservation.
@@LaughAtYourDemise you see people in deer stands and think they're just sitting around because you have no grasp on the greater circumstances.
You don't understand that they've been out there for months scouting out the area, looking for scat and tracks to find the best place to set up. Deer stand hunting is literally , 3 days of shooting, but 3 months of tracking and prep work
@@LaughAtYourDemiseYou do realize meat doesn't come from grocery stores...right?
@@daltondrouillard9308 for me it does lol. And none of the meat I eat comes from a hunter so I don’t see your point. If you think the majority of hunters do it for food your kidding yourself. I’m not some animal rights advocate in a situation like this… I just find 0 sport in it.. no risk at all to the hunter, while the prey has no defense mechanism to help save it. The argument for over population is due to the fact we killed all their natural predators in many areas. So again, I find the majority of hunters pretty much border line sociopaths just looking for the fix of killing something behind the defense of “hunting” for food lol. I mean damn y’all cut off the head for a trophy? Pretty sick
Thank you for saving him. I have never hunted nor want to, but you guys prove that a true hunter respects nature ❤❤❤
animals make friends to fight and kill other animals. saving an injured animal instead of eating it is unnatural.
@@Nikwunu Theres no point in indiscriminately killing an animal in need. Sure if you were hungry that would be an easy meal, but its not like this guy is in survival mode. In these cases it’s better to just help them out if possible and let them go breed.
@@hailey9117 you didnt defend your own argument about it being natural. of course every human needs to eat so it might as well be that buck. its practically placed on a golden platter.
@@Nikwunucountless examples of one species saving different kind of species from a predator or being trapped in a wild prove you wrong my dear american psycho 🙂. Doesnt get nore natural than that
@@Nikwunu I’m not arguing. Nor do I need to use something being natural or not as an argument. I’m just saying that this hunter demonstrated a respect for nature by using long-term thinking (letting a stuck animal go, better for the population) rather than short-term (mmm yummy meat now). Since he is hunting for sport and not survival, he is in the position to demonstrate such behavior. And that kind of thing is what separates us from the animals 👍🏻
That deer knew that those hunters actually helped him. ❤
Love this! Animals realise far more than we think! Respect guys! 👍👏👏👏
You're so right as you can see the deer looks back at him saying thank you and he could have just run away.
Could be that the deer was still feeling weak
That's just totally awesome, true sportsmanship there!!
Makes you feel good when you help these innocent animals doesn't it? Thak you for your kindness.❤
So sweet. This is what life is supposed to be like on this planet, love and kindness. And mutual respect among all earthlings.

@@junglejarred6366Yes. I also know that unless the cattle are raised on good farms, companies like Fairlife will continue unethical practices and the government will do nothing to stop them like you dips think they will.
