  • Doe with two fawns (and a big problem)

     

     

    A doe with two fawns was crossing the parking lot today, so I grabbed my camera to get some wildlife pics. Didn't really notice at first, but when I zoomed in I saw that the doe has a badly broken right front leg and was just barely able to walk.

    Looks like she's been hit by a car, maybe? A daily thing around here.

    My first thought was to put the poor thing out of it's misery. but then, what about the two fawns?

    They managed to get across the lot, and about a half hour later were grazing on the hillside right behind our building.

    Never could get all three of them in the same shot.

    So, what do you think? Should I do the humane thing, and take the doe out?

    Or just let nature take it's course?

    Any advice, Randy?

    Or anybody?
