He said that on the morning of May 18, 2011, my wife noticed a deer in a yard that appeared to be frantically looking for something in the rocks that form a wall on the property line in Brush Prairie, WA
When they first went out with the neighbors, they didn't see anything but the doe wouldn't leave the yard. We went back into our house and watched - after a few minutes the deer came back. We went out to the area the deer was concentrating on and could hear a baby fawn crying in the rocks. He had apparently fallen in or crawled in through one of the gaps and was now trapped. The large boulders were too heavy to move and we didn't want to have the rocks cave in on the baby deer.
They finally called the Clark County Fire District 3. The B-Shift team came out and they were able to move the larger rocks out of the way with the Jaws of Life enough to be able to reach in and pull the baby fawn out and reunited it with its mama. The fawn most likely was probably stuck in there most of the night and quickly went on to nurse off it's mama.
One of the neighbors took some video clips of the fire department's rescue. I edited into a short clip. After sharing it with some friends they thought that it was too cute not to share with more people. Below is the video of the fawn's rescue! So heart warming!
What a rescue!!! It was really heart warming to look at the video.
