Enrico Di Francesco, a fisherman of the Coastal Italian town of Giulianova, rescued a deer desperately swimming in the middle of the Adriatic sea.
Enrico Di Francesco was out on his routine fishing expedition, recently, when he saw what looked like a log floating at a distance.
He started filming it out of curiosity and approached it for a closer look, and was shocked to see that it was a deer swimming for its life.
He managed to reel it in and bring it to the shore safely. “It was not an easy catch,” Enrico Di Francesco told the local media.

With powerful hind legs and lean muscular bodies, deer are built to swim and they have been recorded swimming up to 10 miles. Deer, who live in coastal areas, have also been spotted swimming to nearby islands in search or safety or food.
When frightened they may jump into water and continue to swim in the same direction they were heading to till they drown.
