We’re used to seeing some unusual guests at our clinic—stray cats, injured dogs, even the occasional raccoon. But nothing could have prepared us for what happened one quiet afternoon.
Out of nowhere, a young deer walked right up to our front door—calm, confident, like it knew exactly where it was going. It didn’t seem afraid. In fact, it looked me straight in the eye, almost like it was trying to say something.
That’s when I noticed a leather strap around its leg. Attached to it was a small, folded piece of paper. I opened it and read: “Help us. They’re watching.”
Stunned, I called the authorities. When the responding officer read the note, he went pale and immediately called for backup. “We’re placing the deer under protective care,” he said—words I never thought I’d hear.
Word of the mysterious deer spread fast online, and before long, the internet was buzzing with wild theories and speculation.
