No one could explain how it got there.
On Saturday, July 4, in Astoria, Oregon, a fawn was found curled up on the roof of a house. It had been trapped for nearly an hour when someone called the Astoria Fire Department for help. A firefighter climbed up with a roof ladder, and while working to bring the little one down, its mother stayed in the area: pacing back and forth, waiting.
The rescuer carried the spotted fawn under his arm and took it to a set of stairs. That’s where the best part happened: the little one made some sounds, its mother ran to meet it, and the two left together through the neighborhood.
Online, people couldn’t resist the jokes. “They’re trying to be one of Santa’s reindeer”, someone wrote. Others simply thanked the firefighters for stopping everything on a holiday to save a little animal that didn’t even know how to get down from there.
