Volunteer fire brigade saves Reh from dangerous pool adventure!

Bruck an der Leitha, Österreich - An unusual use caused excitement in Enzersdorf an der Fischa: an exhausted deer had fallen into a swimming pool and urgently needed help. The Enzdorf volunteer fire brigade was alerted and moved out to the site with two vehicles, the RLFA 2000 and the MTFA. On site, the image of a frightened but unharmed animal presented itself, which unfortunately could not free itself from the predicament. A courageous use of the firefighters saved the deer from its forced position, which was then accompanied to freedom. Fortunately, the animal was not injured in the incident. The use took a total of 40 minutes, including a debriefing.

The spectacular event throws a light on the problem of wild animals in urban areas. Especially in recent years it can be observed that wild animals are increasingly in residential areas. Among other things, this development can be attributed to a wide range of food and mild winter. The encounter with wild boars, foxes or martens has also increased in cities like Berlin. The animals have learned that they have to tolerate fewer dangers in cities, which means that they lose their shyness. As explained berlin.de, the occurrence of wild animals can not only lead to uncertainty, but also cause damage to land.

In the current discussion about wild animals in urban areas, it is important to reduce prejudices and fears. A good understanding of why and how wild animals penetrate our habitats can help to find common solutions, such as containing damage and ensuring security for everyone involved. The behavior of the wild animals in urban areas should be understood as an indication of how important it is to live harmoniously.

The fire brigades are available as a reliable partner to help animals in need. General knowledge of food sources and behavior of wild animals could also help to make such ideas more positive. Nevertheless, the awareness of the integrity of our nature remains essential.
