Bizarre Photos That Will Make You Look Twice

5. This Deer Has Seen Some Stuff

It’s not every day you see a deer being interviewed on TV. We can only guess why the reporter decided to question this deer, though most guesses involve hunters and gunshots. Jokes aside, a little research reveals this comes from a Canadian news story about a deer that wandered into a farmer’s yard and befriended the guard dog.
This photo captures a perfectly timed moment that makes local news so entertaining. The deer’s wide-eyed look and the reporter’s serious approach, as if conducting a real interview, create a memorable scene. Knowing the story is about an unlikely animal friendship makes it even sweeter. The deer’s expression seems to say, “I didn’t expect to be on the news just for making a new friend!” The way the deer is framed as an interviewee highlights the power of context. Sometimes, though, the lack of context makes things even more fascinating. This news story likely left viewers both laughing and touched by the tale of cross-species friendship.
