Don't Rescue That Fawn

If you spot a baby deer alone in Jersey, don’t panic—chill out. Mother deer often leave fawns hidden while they feed, and it’s totally normal. Unless the fawn is injured, crying, or you haven’t seen its mom in a full day, leave it be. Handling them—even with good intentions—can cause dehydration, stress, or death. If the fawn is clearly hurt or in distress, call a wildlife expert. Same rule for rabbits and raccoons: observe from afar, and only intervene if absolutely necessary. Let nature take its course.
