A deer fell through a swimming pool cover in Livonia Michigan two days ago which prompted swimming pool owner Kelly Eggers to call 911 to report that a deer was inside of the swimming pool that was partially drained which made it hard for the deer to get out. Livonia Police Department officers arrived at the home when the police asked the Livonia Fire Department firefighters to assist the police officers with the use of an extension ladder to remove the deer from the swimming pool safely. The deer is in good condition after the rescue mission. Kelly is grateful that the police and firefighters were able to rescue the deer from his swimming pool. Link is msn.com/en-us/oth...

Can you imagine trying to get the deer out of the swimming pool yourself?

It would be a very dangerous task for anyone to get a deer out of a swimming pool.

Deers finding their way into pools is actually more common than people think. Livonia--very rough area.

The deer likely got into the pool being curious.

It is rare for a deer to enter into a swimming pool.
