The unusual discovery took place on Sunday in the small mountain town of McBride in Canada. One of the residents, Andrea Arnold, was driving on a snowy city road when she suddenly saw a small deer walking. Its appearance immediately caught attention due to a small detail.

The vest fit the deer as if it were tailor-made

The animal was wearing a reflective vest, which was even zipped up. In an interview with the local newspaper, it was explained that the animal was nonchalantly dressed in an outfit that fit it perfectly.

The witness observed that even the legs fit into the armholes, and the zipper was tightly fastened. Before the deer disappeared among the trees, the witness captured the unusual sight in a photo, which was shared on social media.

The post quickly filled with comments. Some suggested that a reflective vest could ensure the deer's safety on the highway, while others feared the animal might hurt itself by snagging on a tree.

The police are searching for the person responsible for the situation

Internet users ask, "How did this happen, and who is responsible?" So far, there has been no answer. The police are investigating the matter. According to initial leads, one of the town's residents might be involved.

Authorities warned against repeating this behavior, as approaching wild animals can be dangerous. Additionally, it is the stress they should not needlessly be exposed to. So far, despite its conspicuous appearance, the animal has not been found.
