A Colorado Parks and Wildlife employee on Thursday rescued a deer in Bayfield that was tangled in electric rope, according to the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Twitter. Community members had reported sightings of the deer that had electric rope, a type of nylon rope intertwined with electric wiring, wrapped around its neck and antlers for weeks.

The rope left a gash in the buck’s neck and broke one of the buck’s antlers. Once the buck was untangled, Taylor gave the animal a drug to reverse the sedation.
