***PLEASE SHARE THIS POST TO KEEP FAWNS FROM BEING TAKEN FROM THE MOTHERS.***

Every spring and early summer, white-tailed deer give birth and raise their young across Oklahoma. During this time, it is very common to come across a fawn lying alone in a field, wooded area, or even yards/near homes in urban and suburban areas.

The good news? This is usually completely normal.

Mother deer often leave their fawns hidden in a safe spot while they forage nearby. The fawn's best chance of survival is to remain exactly where its mother left it.

💚 If you care, leave it there. 💚

You can help by:
• Keeping dogs leashed or from roaming freely
• Avoiding mowing, weed-eating, or other yard work near the fawn for the day
• Giving the area plenty of space and minimizing disturbance

How can you tell if a fawn may truly need help? Look for these signs:
• Numerous ticks clustered around the eyes, face, and ears.
• A dirty fawn with visible wounds or dried blood that has not been cleaned.
• A fawn that is persistently following people, dogs, or other animals while crying out.
• The tips of the fawn's ears are curled back due to dehydration.
• A general, unkept appearance like it has not been groomed by mom.

If you observe any of these signs, contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator for guidance.

Please do not move a fawn before speaking with WildCare Oklahoma at 405-872-9338 or another licensed wildlife rehabilitator. Well-intentioned people sometimes accidentally "rescue" healthy fawns that are simply waiting for their mothers to return. This is sad for the baby and its mother.

Our goal is always to keep wildlife where it belongs—wild, free, and with its natural family whenever possible.

Say hello to Banks (left, male) and Monet (right, female)!
What breed are they? 100% cutie!
They are about 1 year old and 30-35 pounds. They were found running stray together and seem to be brother/sister.
They would love to find a home together, if possible, but can be adopted separately.
UPDATE: Banks has been adopted!!
