Wild deer escapes troublesome plastic pumpkin

[Mrs Behavin]

A deer whose head was stuck in a plastic Halloween jack-o’-lantern for nearly a week has freed itself and will be fine, animal rescuers said Saturday.
Two children found a dented, hair-lined plastic pumpkin in their yard Friday night, and other neighbors saw a thin deer running free, The Grand Rapids Press reported. It was rainy Friday, which rescuers think helped the young deer wriggle free.
Rescuers had planned to use a dart gun to tranquilize the yearling, then remove the bucket, meant for collecting candy.

hilarious. how sweet wouldn't it be to walk around with a candy depository around your neck. Then I would never have to worry about where I'm going to put all that candy the nice man in the van gave me.
