We walk up the lane toward the main road, itself gravel and remote when right in front of us stands a fawn not more than a week old, severely injured. He shakes, trembles, his head severely swollen, gashed, his eyes swollen & shut— he comes toward to the sound of my voice stumbling over twigs & dead branches. No mother anywhere in sight. I lift him up and place him on a blanket in our car. He doesn’t move. We take him to a ranch near-bye that has agreed to take him. We’re not sure he will survive drive to ranch. This image was taken the next morning after a night of bottle feeding— swelling reduced, a long way to go, but here he is. #fawn #deer #weekold #morning #wounded #injured #countryroad #mothersmilk #ranch #rancher #bottlefeeding ##mommasmilk #blanket #mother #wildlife #rescue #swelling #swollen #blind #trembling #recovery #june #woods #summer #2019 #outdoor (at Manitoulin Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzjMsc3HaCB/?igshid=wro0mpaelbkb
