Why it worked

The video uses a common animal behavior (curiosity and caution) and a surprising element (a fake deer) to create an engaging and shareable moment. The visual of real deer reacting to a statue is inherently interesting and relatable to anyone who has observed animal behavior.

Summary

A herd of deer encounters a deer statue placed on a forest path. Initially, they become alert and stare at the statue, mistaking it for a predator. However, after observing it for a while, they realize it's not a real animal and move on.

THIS YOU PRANKS ANIMALS A STATUE PATH OF ACROSS IMMEDIATELY ALERT STARTED EXACT STATUE THEY DANGEROUS HIDING BUSES ATTACK THERE MOVING SLOWLY SOMETHING STRANGE THEY WASN'T ALL JUST PLACED TO

Transcript

Look, this is exactly why you should never play pranks on wild animals. Someone had placed a deer-like statue along a forest path. And when a herd of real deer came across it, immediately they became alert. Every deer started staring in the exact statue they were facing because they thought a dangerous predator might be hiding behind the bushes waiting to attack. But after standing there for a while, moving slowly, the deer slowly realized that something was strange. They eventually understood that it wasn't all just a placed statue to scare them.
