It is said that petting and considerable contact can cause that to happen... These girls did not really touch them, simply held up grass for the fawn to nibble on... There is a fair amount of controversy as you read the net... This is a large park where we also have a captive elk herd... I have had young elk lick my hand more than once and go right back to momma with no problems...

Thanks for checking out my post...

Glad you enjoyed Rich,

Busse woods is a very nice place to visit... Deer, Elk, raccoons, skunk (lol) over 300 different species of birds supposedly hang out here... Some baby eagles, and plenty of hawks... Since you are in the western burbs it is worth checking out....
