💔💔💔💔💔We are begging our community… PLEASE LEAVE FAWNS ALONE.💔💔💔💔💔
Every single day we are getting messages and emails from people who have already picked up a fawn and then ask how to care for it😡😖😡
This is NOT okay!!! This is NOT legal!!! And this is NOT helping!!!!
If you see a fawn alone for a few hours, that does NOT mean it’s abandoned!!!
Mother deer intentionally leave their babies hidden while they go off to feed. She WILL come back!!!!!!!!!!
When you take that baby you are ILLEGALLY removing wildlife from the wild!!!!
You are causing extreme stress to the fawn!!!!💔
You are separating it from a mother who is actively caring for it💔
Now instead of a healthy baby waiting safely for mom YOU'VE created an orphan that did not need to be one!!!!
Please understand this clearly
Do NOT touch, move, or “rescue” a fawn without speaking to a licensed wildlife professional FIRST!!!!
If you’re reaching out to US , WAIT for a response before doing anything!!!!
We cannot undo the damage once that baby is taken💔.
This is getting completely out of control, and it is costing fawns their lives.💔💔💔
We are literally begging you LEAVE THE FAWNS WHERE THEY ARE!!!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Mom is nearby. Let HER do HER job!!!

We know you mean well, and we love that. If you want to help wildlife babies this spring, here's what to do:

Leave them alone. Really. In most cases, the babies are just fine and under the direct care of their parents, and any "help" we try to give as humans generally greatly reduces their chances of thriving and surviving.

Wildlife parents do things differently. Rabbit and deer moms, like a lot of other mammal moms, will leave young hidden in the nest during the day while they feed or sleep before returning to check on the little ones at night.

Wildlife kids, including birds, leave the nest or den pretty early. Even then, they're still under the direct care of their parents, who are likely watching nearby and shaking their heads at their kids' questionable decisions.

We know you're still thinking, "but..." and yes, there are times when it's appropriate to call a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. If you've just witnessed the parent being hurt or killed, or you can see an animal is visibly injured, call a rehabber (don't touch the nest or animal before calling, and follow the rehabber's instructions). Remember, it's not legal to take in wildlife.
