Posted — UpdatedA group of Maine lobstermen made an unusual catch this week.
“We had to circle a few times to get hold of him,” Thaxter said on the show, explaining the unorthodox method they used to reel the deer in. “They grabbed him by the spikes and maybe a leg or two and just dragged him in.”
You can see two of the men helping the animal into the boat in Dorr’s picture below.
The lobster boat got as close to a beach as it could before hoisting the deer back into the water, letting it swim back to land. Not surprisingly, this photo got the most likes of any of them on Facebook, with more than 2,000 people reacting to it so far.
“It was a great feeling once they helped him back into the water, headed in the right direction, and to see him finally touch land,” Thaxter told “Good Morning America.” “It was definitely worth the time and effort. You can’t let anything suffer like that when you can easily help.”
Well done, guys!
