Heroic Deaf Man Recounts in Sign Language How He Rescued a Deer From Drowning in an Icy Lake

When a compassionate man stopped his car to help a deer from drowning in an icy lake, he did everything he possibly could to make sure the beautiful animal stayed alive. After doing so, he recounted the episode in sign language, which redditor and sign language interpreter ceejface translated what the heroic man had to say.

This is my dad’s buddy.Here is what he is saying:

“I was driving along when I see this deer struggling to survive. I felt obligated to help her, so I pulled over, trekked through the woods, and crawled out onto the ice. I used a rope to pull her out. I am so glad she is safe. Now we need to find her mom. I will call her Miss Ice River. She must be so cold. I am so happy that she survived. Farewell.”
