Roe Deer Rescue

We had a tiny Roe Deer brought to the wildlife hospital as it had been found at the bottom of a wall in Rochdale. The finder did their best to put it back for the mother to find but after hours of watching she didn’t appear. With great reluctance the finder made the decision to rescue the deer and bring it to Lower Moss Wood.

As the deer needs feeding every 3 hours the decision was made that Rachel should take it home to care for it. The deer is housed in a large dog carrier which was a donation from a supporter and has come in handy for this little job. To keep him warm he is nestled on a heat mat with fleece bedding and a blanket.
