What was it that caused 4 NYPD police vehicles and one from the NYC Park Rangers to close off a short portion of the road near the City Island circle this morning? A fawn, but not sure on the species because there are about 60.
#CityImages did not get close enough to check, but since seer is a group of even-toed ungulate mammals. They form the family Cervidae. A male deer is called stag or buck, a female deer is called doe, and a young deer is called fawn.
It’s a situation many people have found themselves in during the summer, or springtime. If you spot a tiny fawn in the grass, seemingly helpless. The mother may be nowhere in sight, so the natural instinct is to take in the youngster for a few days to nurse them back to health, buy formula, bottles and bring out old towels. You become invested, passionate about saving a life. Not to mention, they're adorable.
Beware because you kidnapped that fawn from the mother completely crushing all chances of survival.
