I know goats & deer fairly well for sure but had always wondered if they can completely coexist with one another as I have never had goats & deer together @ the same time. I know that a nursing doe deer will care & nurse a dead does orphaned fawns(sometimes) as deer does have been seen with four or more fawns in tow, but deer are NOT capable(that I know of) of carrying/throwing more than three fawns. My question has been answered beyond my wildest expectations! Not only can they be compatible with one another a nursing doe goat can/will actually ADOPT a dead dear doe's fawn(s)! Considering deer are of the family Cervidae where goats are of the family Bovidae this is unbelievably good news to me! Fawns, kid goats don't live life without them!
