A fawn curled up beside a fake deer which is used for target practice.
Please note the calm looking fawn.
It’s mother has most likely used the fake deer as cover for the fawn to sleep near. I’ve personally witnessed a doe direct a fawn to lay in a patch of tall weeds and go lay on a hill where she could see me and the tall patch of weeds. That’s what they do, find something bigger than the fawn to sleep near so they’re hidden while they sleep.
This isn’t a sad child looking for something mother-like, this is a kid getting put to bed.
so the mom just managed to find the most haunting large object behind which to hide a child
@deerstar4 too good to be banished to the tags
