BOSTON (WHDH) - A deer was spotted Thursday morning swimming toward an island in Boston Harbor.
Jessica Bartlett, of the Boston Business Journal, captured video of the deer floating in the water as the MBTA ferry she was riding on passed by.
In a tweet, Bartlett wrote, “On today’s MBTA ferry a (rein)deer was seen swimming to one of the islands! Didn’t know deer could swim!”
A deer can swim at up to 13 mph, according to Big Game Logic.
