This was just SWEET!!!
Email ^ | 3/10/05 | Calpernia

Posted on 03/11/2005 3:49:15 PM PST by Calpernia

This was an email forward.

I took the names out for privacy. I had to post, too sweet!

Copy and edited:

A lady found the fawn under her step (they think the doe might have been hit by a car)... her Ridge Back dog is helping look after it. The family named the fawn Bella. Once she has regained her strength (she was not in good shape when the family found her) they are going to send her to some friends who (in the past) raised two orphan deer and released them to the wild. Right now she is being bottle fed. Their dog (Hogan) has basically taken over. The fawn even shares his bed.

I have no problem being first. Southern Michigan has a LOT of deer. We see them in the city on occasion.

I was expecting the next pic to be of a pot o' stew, with the words, "bambi was here" scrawled on the side.

Oh well, I'm sure someone will oblidge.

I saw a road-kill fawn only a month ago. The deer are on the move early this year.

Hogan's just waiting for the fawn to get some "meat on its bones". No wonder he's taking such good care of it!

JUST KIDDING!!!

Hogan, what an appropriate name!

He's a true hero.

Gestation for whitetail deer is approximately 6 and a half months....the rut was in November. Possibly some older does got bred earlier...maybe middle/late Oct. That still would place those does giving birth in mid-April.

I'd guess you saw a late '04 summer fawn.....Unless everything's gone wacky this year....

I do know that it seems the bucks are holding their antlers longer this year. Leastway's around here they are........
