Wild Infants - Do I Need Help?

White-Tailed Deer

A small fawn alone in a meadow is not necessarily an orphan!  The female deer will protect her young from predators by leaving it alone in a secluded spot.  Do not attempt to rescue a fawn until you have discussed the situation with a rehabilitation facility.
