A North Carolina man rescued a deer spotted wandering his neighborhood with a bucket stuck over its head.
"It was just running for its life-- smashing into everything in front of it and totally blind," McHugh told WXII-TV. "Hopping around because it couldn't see-- and thought it was in the dark. It was like a zombie movie, it was really terrifying."
McHugh was finally able to get close enough to pull the bucket from the deer's head.
"It was terrifying," McHugh said. "If I didn't have my adrenaline going the whole time, I would've probably run from the deer instead of going toward the deer."
McHugh said he wasn't thinking about his own safety."The only thing I thought to do was try to wrestle the bucket off its head," McHugh said. "And I succeeded."
Animal rescuers in Michigan conducted a similar rescue last month when a deer was spotted wandering a Bloomfield Hills neighborhood with a plastic Halloween bucket stuck over its head.
