Illinois State Conservation Police, Cook County Animal Control and Chicago Animal Care and Control personnel responded to the St. Casimir Catholic Cemetery on Chicago's Southwest Side after the yearling deer was spotted with its head stuck in a jar.

"This morning's confirmation of the jug being found on the ground on-site is a relief to all involved," Chicago Animal Care and Control said on social media.
