Fire brigade staff joined the RSPCA to rescue a young deer after the animal became stuck in mud at Pulteney Weir in Bath on Friday. The deer had strayed into the city and it eventually took five firefighters to hold the animal down, while RSPCA workers placed it in a cage.
The muntjac deer scampered off when it was taken to a nearby golf course.
Richard Masling, of the RSPCA, said: "It was just leaping around and I would say it was 100% fit."
"He's headed off back to the country and I would think he's probably going to tell his mates, 'the city's not for us pals'," he added.
