The men axed through the frozen ice just to get to the poor deer. The =
young Doe had its front legs on the ice while the lower half of its body =
was still in the water....poor thing had struggled for an hour and a =
half and it now looked like it may have died from pure exhaustion.
They carried the deer to the shore (each man holding 2 legs) so it =
truly gave the appearance that the deer was already gone. After a few =
minutes of just laying there, it perked up and ran into a wooded area. =
Mom had exited on the other side of the lake, so I'm sure hoping they =
all reunited again.
Thanks to ALL who responded with suggestions...
it was a great ending to a very dismal-looking predicament and
huge Kudos to the Conservation Officers!!

There are 3 Deer that have fallen through thin ice on Kohlman Lake in=20
Maplewood.
This lake is at the intersection of County Road C & HWY 61.
Calls have been made to the DNR, U.S. Fish & Wildlife, Police & Fire =
Dept=20
and there is no one that can help these poor animals. I realize it's =
Sunday=20
but this is so sad to watch
Does anyone know who else can be called?...or is there something I can =
do?
Thanks for any suggestions or phone numbers.
