A baby deer fell into a Long Island backyard pool — not once, but twice — and fortunately a 12-year-old boy was around with his dad to scoop it out each time. The fawn turned out to be a much better swimmer than walker, wobbling and collapsing a few times once it was out of the water. But what the newborn lacked in coordination it made up for in adorably high-pitched squeaks, and within about an hour the helpless, bleating creature was reunited with its mom, according to CNN.
