The dramatic rescue happened on the weekend in the Kawarthas, and was caught on tape. Three electricians were working at Viamede when they noticed the deer struggling on ice near the open lake.
"Tim Stanley filmed the footage—all three of us work for SRP electric," Jay Wells tells PTBOCanada. "We just sat down for break while working at Viamede Resort. From a distance, we noticed an object struggling on the ice. Unaware of exactly what it was, thinking it was a deer, we set out to investigate further.... Once close by on shore, we were skeptical about going out on the ice to help, as we were unsure the thickness of the ice—as the deer was a couple hundred yards from shore."
