RESCUE - DEER
Orphaned Fawns
It is not unusual for people to encounter young fawns whose mothers have left them bedded down while they are out foraging. If the fawn is not crying, is not being bitten by fire ants, its eyes are not swollen, and it has no visible wounds, leave it in peace. Any handling will cause stress to the fawn.
If the fawn is clearly sick, call TWRC or a local authority for assistance and/or referral.
