So my sister lives a bit in the country and she woke up this morning to a fawn on her doorstep (aww)




Obviously she is going to keep an eye in it and hope the mama deer comes back, but if it doesn't, what do you do with stray deer? Should she try and raise it? I know deer can be like dogs if raised from a young age, but idk it's kind of weird I guess

We don't want to call anyone and have it put down obviously or leave it outside to be viscously attacked by coyotes.

What would the OT do?

deer make awesome pets except for the crap they leave and do to your lawn.

Maybe call the local vet and see what suggestions they have. There are some animal shelters that will take in a variety of animals as well

Leave it be, its most likely just fine. If not, coyotes got to eat too.

Where she lives is very important.

In Alabama it is illegal for a private citizen to keep a deer as a pet. If you're caught, the odds are very, very high that DCNR will (a) fine you and (b) destroy the deer.

If you're in Alabama and momma doesn't find it, contact these people: LINK

Kill it. You will never taste venison more tender.

Give it a paint brush. I'm sure it could do any worse.
