COMPASSION FOR DEER

After reading about so much bad human behavior, it is very refreshing and good to read about the compassion shown by the men who rescued the wild deer from the frozen creek.

Everyday we see, read and hear about good, compassionate, respectful behavior toward all of the creator's creatures - including us.
