The young male buck in Arizona had slipped into the cold water and couldn’t scale the steep concrete walls to get out. And then the cowboys arrived.
This cold, exhausted deer got some last minute help in Arizona on Thursday when two cowboys whipped out their lassos and got to work.

Arizona Game and Fish wildlife officials said in a YouTube post that it's not known how long the young buck had been in the cold water, unable to climb the steep concrete walls of the canal near Lake Pleasant. However, it was clear that he was tired and in distress.
The agency got several calls regarding the trapped deer, but by the time wildlife officers arrived, a rescue attempt was already underway.
Some local cowboys had been trying to lasso the struggling deer, but without much luck from the side, so they took advantage of a bridge.
