The American keepers, working with the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) team, saved a deer carrying a tire around its neck in 2021. Efforts to liberate this four-year-old bull elk from the neck “decoration” lasted two years.

They began pursuing the deer by installing cameras. Rescuers went out several times looking for him, but the animal avoided people and bolted when he spotted them.

The guardians eventually triumphed. They were able to chase and capture the unfortunate deer. The trip took a week to complete. A tranquilizer was only used on the fourth try to put the animal to sleep. Then animal rights activists began to remove his “necklace.”

The tire was hefty, and it was filled with cones and other objects. The deer found it difficult to carry such a heavy burden on his back. The deer had a wound on his neck beneath it, so the rangers had to remove the tire, chop off the antlers, and treat the wound. In the end, he was in a good condition.
