It's fawn season! Animal Care & Control officers have recently received many calls regarding fawns that residents believe have been abandoned.

Please leave fawns alone. Human intervention will only hurt a fawn's chances of survival. Never touch, feed, or move a fawn unless it is next to an injured or dead doe.

Important Facts to Keep in Mind:
▪️ Mother deer typically return to their fawns late at night or early in the morning to feed them.
▪️ Moving a fawn makes it difficult for the mother to find it. This can lead to permanent abandonment and death for the fawn.
▪️ Mother deer are often nearby and may charge humans to protect their young.
