Can you believe this?? You will probably never see this again. A little miracle! ...with all the gloomy news floating out there...here is a nice nature story that is uplifting... This tiny deer was delivered by ceasarean section at a wildlife hospital after his mother was killed by a car. Little Rupert, who is so small he can fit in an adult's hand, was born after vets failed in their battle to save his mother. ![]() ![]() At just six inches tall and weighing just over a pound, he is now in an incubator in the intensive care unit at Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire. He has only recently opened his eyes.Les Stocker, founder of Tiggywinkles said: Rupert's mother had very severe injuries. We brought him out and got him breathing and then he went into an incubator on oxygen. He is now being fed by a tube. ![]() Tucked in, Rupert is in an incubator ![]() The dear little deer,Rupert, pulls a striking pose for the camera. Staff are optimistic Rupert, now five days old, will make a full recovery. Deer are very, very tricky but this one has spirit. He's an extremely feisty little guy and quite pushy, Mr. Stocker said. Asleep: Rupert takes 40 winks. How sweet eh? ![]() |

I just want to squeeze the stuffing out of him. How adorable and sweet. That's sad that he's without his mom. I hope he makes it.

f*ckin' hell!!! I've been online on Beatle and Macca forums for just over a year and a half now and this is the first time i've come across mention of that song the frog choruos. Weird thing is, come to think of it, is it was probably my earliest memory of P.Mccarneyntney. |
