Freezing Waters
It should go without saying that the deer had to be taken out of the freezing waters. They were in Alaska, after all. Satre once mentioned that these were the most distressed deer he had ever seen in his life. The deer were “foaming at the mouth”, according to him and they were clearly struggling to stay afloat. However, Tom and the others were unsure how they could get the deer onboard the ship.

Pulling Them Up
As an outdoorsman, Tom was able to tell that the animals were young because their antlers were not fully developed yet. He devised a plan and created a lasso from a rope. He attached it to their neck and everyone on the boat had to pull up the deer so that they can come on board.
