Their life mission
The Strong Island Animal Rescue League was founded by married couple Frankie Floridia and Erica Kutzing, after the two wanted to make it their life mission to help animals of need. The two also own a pet shop.
As the couple later indicated, the deer had several physical injuries and an emotional trauma from the ordeal he went through. The two assumed that he fell off a cliff and into the water, and that was the source of his trauma.
