Woman Yells “Little Girl,” Wild Animal Emerges From Woods

A video is leaving viewers shocked after capturing what happened when a woman yelled out the words “little girl” into the woods. People couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw what emerged and came running towards her just moments later.

Amy Carrickhoff stood outside her Oakridge, North Carolina, home in the footage, and what happened next made the long-haired woman seem like something out of a Disney fairytale. “Little girl!” she yelled out into the trees, and while this might look familiar to many dog owners, what came bounding towards her wasn’t your typical four-legged friend…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

“Here she comes,” someone recording the footage says as the video pans towards the sound of something quickly approaching. Then, viewers get a good look at “Little Girl” and quickly realize she’s not a human or a dog or anything else you might expect. In fact, she’s something else that’s so entirely unexpected, it’s no wonder the viral clip is leaving viewers jaw-dropped.

Just like a real-life Disney Princess, Amy has befriended the forest animals. Standing outside her door every morning, she called out, “Little girl!” That “girl” is a deer, which we see run towards the woman to greet her in the video before jumping up to try to give her a kiss. “Good morning! How’s my baby?” asked Amy, who at that point puts viewers in mind of Snow White.

The bizarre clip doesn’t end there. In fact, Amy then has the animal follow her through the garage and into her home to have breakfast in her kitchen. Preparing a bottle for the deer, Amy is seen shaking up some goat’s milk that the animal seems eager to eat, according to CNN. In the footage, the deer, which was brought to Amy as a baby by a friend when it was abandoned, gobbles up the milk before Amy wipes its snout with a napkin.

While some viewers find the clip to be the cutest, others raise concern. As animal-lovers cheered the fairytale-like experience and some even said they wanted a deer of their own now, hunters and wildlife rehabilitators felt Amy wasn’t doing the doe any favors. They claimed she was allowing the deer to get too comfortable around humans, where it could end up hit by a car, shot by a hunter, or hurting someone.

“After reading some of the comments, I feel compelled to add my own,” one hunter wrote, before sharing the concern the footage caused for him. “While it is true that her feeding this fawn will indeed make it somewhat dependent on her, the chance of that harming the deer would be slight. The bigger danger for it, and one that bothers me much more, is conditioning it to not be afraid of humans,” he warned. “There are some (not all, don’t flame me) deer hunters that would love to fill a doe tag by having one walk up to him so he could cut its throat.” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Others were more forceful and blunt with their opinions. “You just gave this animal a DEATH SENTENCE – you also have put all your neighbors and their children at risk of being attacked where this deer matures and when she doesn’t get fed, she attacks someone,” one reader wrote, according to CNN.

The deer, which was said to show up for lunch and dinner too, was brought to Amy’s home when the animal was abandoned since the woods behind Amy’s house are protected from hunting and offered a suitable location for the fawn to be rehabilitated. She continued to come around for bottles before moving on to regular deer food, which Amy gladly provided for her when the time came.

Although the clip created great debate as to the pros and cons of human interaction and interference with wild animals, “Little Girl” reportedly assimilated back into the wild and had a fawn of her own. Shortly after giving birth, “Little Girl” wouldn’t come when she was called. Instead, she became wild again, leaving Amy confident that she didn’t overly domesticate the animal.

“She walked off into the woods and we never saw her again,” Amy said. “We combed those woods … we never found anything.” Amy and her husband got so attached to “Little Girl” that they don’t ever want to take care of another animal. “I just watch the videos, and she kind of lives on,” Amy said, adding that getting to know the deer was a special experience that she doesn’t regret.

Your Cooking Gas Can Last Long With These Simple Methods, Apply The Steps Below

Published

By

With the rising cost of living, saving on household expenses has become more important than ever. One major area where Kenyan households can cut costs is on cooking gas (LPG). Whether you use a 6kg or 13kg gas cylinder, simple adjustments in your daily cooking routine can help your gas last longer and save you money in the long run. Here are practical methods to help extend the life of your cooking gas:

1. Use the Right Cooking Pots

Always use flat-bottomed and well-fitting pots with lids. A flat base ensures maximum contact with the burner, making heating more efficient. Lids trap heat and allow food to cook faster, reducing the amount of gas needed. Avoid using small pots on large burners, as a lot of heat escapes around the sides, wasting gas…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

2. Prepare Everything Before Turning on the Gas

Many people waste gas by turning it on before preparing ingredients. Chop your onions, tomatoes, vegetables, and meat before lighting the burner. Once everything is ready, the cooking process will be faster, and your gas will last longer.

3. Use Low Flame When Necessarily

Not all meals require high flame. Cooking on medium or low heat is often sufficient and reduces gas consumption significantly. High flames tend to waste gas because much of the heat escapes without being absorbed by the pot.

4. Clean the Burner Regularly

A clogged or dirty burner produces a yellow flame, which is less efficient and uses more gas. A clean burner gives a blue flame, which is hotter and more energy-efficient. Clean your burner holes with a pin or a wire brush to maintain proper flame quality.

5. Switch Off the Gas When Not in Use READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Even a few seconds of wasted gas adds up over time. Always ensure you turn off the gas immediately after cooking. Also, make it a habit to check the regulator and hose for leaks, which can slowly waste gas without you noticing.

6. Cook More Than One Meal at a Time

If possible, cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner in one session. Reheating meals uses less gas than cooking from scratch each time. This method also saves time and reduces your overall daily gas usage.

7. Use a Pressure Cooker

Pressure cookers trap steam and cook food much faster than regular pots, especially when preparing beans, maize, or meat. This drastically reduces the amount of gas needed for such meals.

8. Use Wind Guards or Shields

Cooking in a windy place can lead to heat loss, requiring more gas to maintain the cooking temperature. Using wind shields around the stove or cooking in a sheltered area helps conserve heat and saves gas.

Conclusion

By adopting these simple yet effective strategies, you can extend the lifespan of your cooking gas and reduce household expenses. Efficient cooking habits, proper kitchen equipment, and routine maintenance of your gas stove all contribute to better gas economy. Make these steps part of your daily routine and enjoy longer-lasting gas and more savings.

Among the treasures the sea has to offer in the area are crabs — which happen to be fisherman Alan’s specialization.

But when he and Malory were out at sea with their boat one day, they saw something very different from the crab they were used to — and it was a sight they would never forget.

Alan and Malory soon spotted something unusual on top of the mushroom-shaped iceberg. At first, they assumed it was a seal, Malory said. They decided to take a closer look — and that’s when they discovered that it wasn’t a seal at all, but rather a creature with four legs that does not normally reside at sea: It was a polar fox.

It’s unclear how the fox ended up there and for how long the poor creature had been stuck there in the middle of nowhere and awaiting a cruel fate. But what’s certain is that the couple knew immediately that they had to do something to help.
