A herd of deer was captured trying to cross a flooded road in Jacksonville, North Carolina, amid flooding from the remnants of Hurricane Florence.
It’s not clear when the footage was shot.
Dozens of communities in the Carolinas were devastated by excessive flooding triggered by storm surge and heavy rains.
It comes as officials said that the wild horses on North Carolina’s Outer Banks were unharmed during Florence. The Corolla Wild Horse Fund, an organization devoted to protecting and managing the herd of wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs, said that the horses were “doing their normal thing … grazing, socializing, and wondering what us crazy humans are all worked up over,” according to The Associated Press.
The National Park Service’s Cape Hatteras National Seashore wrote that all of the ponies in another herd in the area “are safe.” It added, “We are happy to announce that all of the Ocracoke ponies are safe and that the pony pen did not sustain any damage from Hurricane Florence.”
However, the storm reportedly killed 14 people in the Carolinas, and it knocked out power for hundreds of thousands.
