A fawn was given the chance to live after an Oklahoma game warden took quick action.

Game Warden Ryan Walker received a call about a deer that was hit by a car on state highway 123.

According to the Oklahoma Game Warden Facebook page when Warden Walker arrived on scene he noticed movement in the doe's stomach. 

Walker took quick action and performed a C-section to save the fawn trapped inside.

Within seconds the fawn was out and breathing on its own, the fawn was taken to a local rehabilitator in Osage Co.
