Deer stuck in a fence is released by hunter | THF Outdoors

We came across a deer stuck in the fence. Not sure if it will make it but I trying to get it out of the fence without getting kicked. Here is the video!

Any suggestions on what to do when you see this? I wasn't sure 100% sure what to do, but I did not want to get busted for poaching. You can get creamed for shooting it. It seemed better to get it out than to let it stay there.

A couple years ago I came across a similar. I was able to get it freed as well. Zero chance surviving stuck in the fence. I too was worried about getting kicked. It was interesting though how it calmed down and sat there allowing me to do what I needed to.

Cut the fence. I’ve let a few out that have been stuck in the fence and they seem to do more damage to themselves in the time you’re trying to help than when they are alone after they get stuck. The faster they get out once you show up, the better. Just cut it and stand back. Less than 15 seconds usually

I've released two whitetails here in Kansas. Not sure if they made but they did leave the area after being let loose.

Then Repair the fence right?

I've released a few from the fence over the years. A couple times, I used the jack handle from my truck to pry the wire apart letting them free. Always a chance of getting kicked but worth it in my book and a decent adrenaline rush to boot. --------SS

Had to put this poor little guy out of his misery. Only thing holding the leg on was the bone.

Fences get a bunch of them for sure.

A fence isn't really a natural hazard. Well, mine are old enough to be on the national register, but you know what I mean.

Are you part of nature? Do beavers build dams?

Ok, let me explain it a different way. The very essence of a fence it to obstruct or impede the movement of animals. It’s no more natural than a leghold trap.
