Deer Hears Human Newborn Crying and Rushes to Help
Maternal instinct is universal, regardless of the species, and the following story perfectly illustrates this. Hanna Burton was spending quality time with her newborn outside on a deck when her baby began to cry.
Mom immediately started to comfort him and rub his back when something else caught her attention. It was a deer rushing toward them. The animal likely thought it was her baby who was crying.
She suddenly stopped when she saw Hanna and her baby, and it was clear that she was quite confused. Hanna captured the entire incident on video, and it is adorable.
The mama deer observed Burton carefully, and after a short while, she realized that she had made a mistake and that it wasn't her baby who was crying. Nevertheless, it was endearing that she came to help.
"Hi, Mama," Hanna said. "She thinks you're her baby."
Judging by the deer's quick response, she is a wonderful mom to her own babies.
