Have a Happy Day “Deer”
We couldn’t get enough of this adorable picture circling the internet. Taken with a trail cam. We can’t get enough of “baby” critters!
Did you know?
White-tailed Deer fawns are born April through July, with the majority of fawns born in June. Most first-year does will have one fawn each year, but twins or triplets are typically seen thereafter.
Until they are strong enough to keep up with their mothers, fawns are left alone while their mothers go off to feed. The Mother will stay away from the fawns to avoid leading predators to their young. Does return at dawn and dusk to feed and/or move their young.
Fawns are typically left in an area with tall grass or bushes, but sometimes they are left in more open areas, including backyards. Older fawns may wander short distances.
