Petting Zoo: Deer Tangled in Hammock Rescued

Oh dear! This poor fellow got his antlers caught in a hammock. Antlers are found only on male deer. They are used mainly for competition with other deer when fighting for a mate.

Deer grow a new set of antlers each summer and then shed them in the fall, so don't worry about this guy too much - it didn't hurt to have his antlers removed!
