A Maine lobsterman, while 5 miles off shore, was able to save..... a live deer.  What?  True statement.

According to a report from Boston.com, the fishermen knew that the deer was just exhausted from just watching it struggle.  The Captain estimated that they were about 5 miles off shore when they decided to save the "poor deer."  They pulled him in the boat and took it back to the shore.  The Boston.com report has a video at the end showing the deer trying to get back up on the land and is having a hard time doing so.  The fishermen decided that he was okay and he would eventually find his way back to land.

The "poor deer" (I can't help myself) was trembling from being in the cold water and from fright, but the fisherman were just there to help.
