Deer Shot With Arrows Saved

(Elgin, OR) -- A deer that had been shot with two arrows near Elgin, in Union County, was rescued and should recover. Last month Fish and Wildlife troopers got calls about a mule deer doe shot in the head and neck with arrows that was walking around. Troopers were not able to safely kill the deer. Fish and Wildlife biologists tranquilized the deer and removed the arrow from its neck. The arrow to its head fell out on its own. The deer's wounds were treated and it was released. Investigators say the arrows were from a crossbow and they're asking for tips to identify the poaching suspect.
