The photograph was taken of two deer who had their horns entangled during
a mating battle. Jim Palmer, Mercer Co. Conservation Agent then & now, is at right while a hunter and two friends, who found the deer, struggles to saw off one deer's horn to free them. In the end they were successful and both deer survived. This photograph and the story published with the pictures helped us get two visits from Jim Fisher who was a columnist for The Kansas City Star.
