…an ungulate is tangled in netting or a fence?
In short Do not approach or cut the netting yourself: the animal thrashes, and hooves and antlers injure a person in a second.
Should you step in?
Only drive off dogs, move people away, and wait for specialists at a safe distance.
When is help needed?
Always: a tangled animal dies of exhaustion and overheating faster than of the netting itself.
What you must never do
Do not try to hold it, do not throw a rope on it, do not force water on it, do not gather onlookers.
When to contact us
Immediately. Give the exact location and the species — that decides who is sent.
A real rescue
A roe deer in anti-drone netting: it was freed because nobody started cutting before the specialists arrived.
