Two Texas men revived a baby deer found lifeless at a lake in Tyler, Texas, by performing CPR and blowing into the animal’s mouth.
Brian Ballard was on a tubing trip to Lake Tyler with his family when he came across a lifeless baby deer underwater, the Tyler Morning Telegraph reported.
Ballard pulled the deer onto his boat and compressed it from its sides. Ashton Byrd, someone from a nearby boat, jumped over to assist Ballard.
The two of them then blew into the fawn’s mouth and nose, and the fawn stood up after a couple of minutes. Ballard said Byrd then took the fawn to a wildlife rehabilitation organization.
“It was pretty amazing,” Ballard said. “It was one of the strangest things to happen to me at the lake.”
Ballard’s wife shared a Facebook video showing the fawn being brought back to life with the caption, “God is good!”
