CANAL CRUISE STAFF RESCUE STRANDED DEER

Heroic canal cruisers came to the aid of a muntjac deer that had slipped into the canal and become stranded, using improvised ropes they hauled the deer out of the canal to safety after which is fled the scene without so much as a thanks. Salford is home to many deer which if lucky can be spotted running wild and free across local woods and greenbelt land.

I am sure this little fella will be happy to have his hooves back on dry land as god only knows how long he had been in there for.

The quick thinking and actions of the Bridgewater Canal Cruises staff members Mark and Tracie ensured that this lucky deer returned back to the wild with the only real damage done to Mark who suffered several scratches to his hands. 

All's well that ends well.

Based in Worsley Bridgewater Canal Cruises has been operating their luxury restaurant boat Francis Egerton since last year, operating cruises along the historic Bridgewater canal from Worsley village, Boothstown, Sale, Dunham Massey and beyond.
