A man working in the forest decided to save a baby deer by moving it out of the way of the trees being cut down. And it would have been a simple thing, but he just had to scratch the deer's belly. The reaction is adorable!

Now, this is exactly what the game wardens tell you not to do. If you handle a wild animal they could be shunned by their families later because they smell like humans. But, in this case, the guy gets a pass because he's trying to save the animal's life.

What he didn't bargain for was the deer's reaction when he innocently scratched its belly the way you would with a dog. The deer is so sweet! And so insistent! Of course, that woodsman is kinda cute...can't say I blame the deer!
