Info from Licensor: "I was driving home from visiting my family and saw the two baby fawns laying off the road. I pulled over to take a few pictures, as soon as I got out of the car they came walking up. Their mom was off in the brush and she didn’t seem to mind. I filmed it and snapped a few pictures before leaving. There has been some backlash on the video because common thought is that a mother doe will reject its fawns if they are touched. However I have helped wildlife researchers collar, follow and study the lives of bucks, does and newborn fawns and I was told that humans do not put the babies at risk."
