      He is some education for you. If you find an abandoned fawn, then leave it alone. The mother will come back. She's just out foraging to build up her milk supplies. It is _extremely_ common for them to do this, and it is pretty common for humans to stumble upon an "abandoned" fawn. LEAVE IT ALONE! The mother deer is almost certainly NOT dead. I live in the mountains, and our local paper has to print warnings every year telling people to not do what this lady and her husband did.

      Thnx David, I knew all about this, as I learned that as well from the first time a fawn was left in our bushes.. the same family came back every year.. never got close to them, but did leave them alone except to throw out some fruit & veggies at times. Our cats sure enjoyed their company.. that being said a fawn is taught lay still and quiet, this one did not, plus the vet said it most likely was left with no mother.. so he was searching/crying because he was hungry..besides, if Thor's family came by, wouldn't you think that that WAS the case..? He wasn't abandoned, but perhaps she did die.. this sweet lady did the right thing in this situation

While I agree wholeheartedly that the issues you mentioned are very real, I also know hunters that constantly break the laws and hunt out of season, so which is this, hard to say.

If the vet, who is experienced with wildlife says, that the mother either rejected the baby or has been killed, that's good enough for me.

      One time a goat jumped into my car and wanted to settle down in the passenger footwell, it wasn't easy getting the goat out, I think she wanted to adopt us. The goat wasn't homeless, it had human owners.

      I love goats, and I've always said they are like the dogs of the barnyard animals. Also very clumsy and silly like dogs can be. It happened because he went to sit down on a bench to play with them and one of them jumped up on the bench at the same time and hit my husband square in the chin with his horns on the way up, luckily avoiding any vital structures. He just had a bloody chin the rest of the day. The goats are always forgiven 😆.
      It was a young yearling goat, so they both learned an important lesson of mutual respect that day!!

    Stories like this are so cool to me because they make you realize that the animals with whom we share the planet are no different than we are. They are us and we are them. Just because we don’t communicate on the same level 95% of the time or share the same concerns doesn’t mean that we’re all that different. If more of us would choose to engage and to learn, as opposed to viewing them only or primarily as a source of food or entertainment, relationships like this one would be so much more common.

      Ingemewis As a human, the woman cannot “mentor” a deer, or any other animal species. This animal had to acquire that kind of knowledge from it’s own kind, or follow it’s natural instincts. It is one thing to learn about an animal and how best to care for it, but that is not “mentoring,” which is totally different from caring for and developing a relationship with it.

    • @ingemewis2043

      To ‘K’
      I would suggest you read an article by Maribeth Decker called, FROM ANIMAL MASTER TO ANIMAL MENTOR.
      You see, it is all a matter of how one perceives the role of the human. Luckily for the animals, humans choose to ‘mentor’ them and no longer look down on them as our slaves! Only primitive man would still be stuck in that thinking.
      Animals today are our companions or our children. They actually soothe our souls. Humans have chosen to be their ‘mums’ or ‘dads’ and openly call themselves that. I do not have a problem with that.
      I do not subscribe to the ‘master’ attitude. I have animals, I am their mum, their partner, their playmate AND their mentor. Maribeth Decker writes, to this effect, the animals guide us so we can mentor them properly by showing us their likes, their dislikes, their vulnerabilities and so on.
      For humans, the ‘role’ has evolved to where we look after our animals’ welfare and in addition to loving them, we mentor them.
      So, to address your ‘objection to using the wrong word’, I would advise you that YES!!! animals have human ‘mentors’. We are no longer their ‘masters’ and thank God for that! This, in no way, takes away from the animals’ birth parents. In the absence of humans, ‘they’ do the teaching of how to fight, to hunt, survival and looking after.
      It’s always advisable to do one’s research first as one would learn a great deal!
