Tom Venesky: Deer improvise for water source during drought

As I scrolled through photos captured by a trail camera, several images showed deer sticking their heads in what appeared to be a hole in the ground.
As the dates of the images progressed, the hole appeared to become deeper as deer continued to poke their heads further down.
A subsequent visit to the location revealed the hole was actually a depression in the ground that the deer continually excavated with their hooves, making it deeper.
Why? They were thirsty.
