In less than three
weeks, the first fawns will see the day.
Although in some cases, the females choose habitats close to the males,
The fawns will rarely meet, for their first time, the mature males only a few
weeks later in habitats containing large food sources such as agricultural
fields. Obviously, some contacts may
happen, but under no circumstances shall we qualify them as paternal since
there is no way for the fawns to know if it is his father or another buck. It’s a curiosity gesture… I presume.
Have a good day. Louis
