The vid below is of Magnolia Fawn Rescue in action. She runs the service in South Carolina & is associated with a local veterinarian when in more critical situations urgent care is required. She also has/had(?) acreage set aside, or DID(?) for both elderly does getting too old/feeble to make it on their own & also permanently crippled deer, kind of like a retirement center would be for elderly folks. Below image; the orphaned fawn arrives & then enters into the Magnolia treatment.
The world of the Deer Whispering Community internationally is a highly diverse community with 43 species of deer & hundreds of sub species. Deer range from 35#(Vampire Deer/3 species) to over 500#(European Red Deer). The one thing I learned about deer is that BOTH fawns AND adult deer(both does & bucks) are completely & totally HELPLESS against any & all predators when ensnared in the wire. If you are travelling in a rural/country area or even IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA where fences OF ALL TYPES abound & you spy a deer/fawn ensnared on/in a fence the below tools can turn U into a real hero;
Below; wire fence pliers(inexpensive);
A roll of bailing wire for quick temporary patch on wire fence(inexpensive).
First aid kit, just make sure the kit has both gauze, scissors & also white medical tape in it(10-15 dollars).
A bottle of Hydrogen Peroxide & a can of Bag Balm.
I'm telling U deer do appear to get in the most gawdamed unbelievable predicaments when they attempt to navigate fences of all types even in posh residential areas as can be seen below as she's "just hanging around soaking up the sunrays";

In some situations a helping push works the magic;
Below, The hog wire fence/stuck rear leg is what I have mostly encountered through the years. As can be seen the fence pliers are generally not even needed;
Below; a simple fix with typical residential yard fence, no tools needed;
Below, WIRE PLIERS USED in this rescue. Notice the LACERERATIONS ON THE FAWNS HOCK! This is WHY barbed wire(ONE strand of barbed wire on this predominantly hog wire fence) should NEVER BE USED ON A FARM OR ANYPLACE as it's a death sentence for our precious creatures;
Below, SAFE FECNCING used in the below vid but the two fences are TOO CLOSE TOGETHER & mommas lil Baboo gets wedged in between the fences. To compound the difficulty the property owners piled up quite a tangle of branches/debris against the fence which both hindered /slowed down the rescue. Momma is obviously @ least a semi domesticated doe if not outright domesticated as she is not too concerned about humans being around her lil Baboo. A home & vehicles in the background(0.35) tells me this a more rural area & momma & her little one have most likely been spoken for by a household in a reasonably close proximity to the rescue, despite momma not being collared. At 1.16 momma looks back @ the gentleman with a look of gratitude, like I know that look instinctively from them.

USE CAUTION WHEN OFFERING A MOMMA ASSISTANCE IN A FAWN RESCUE!!! Below, Momma & Baboo looks to me like the breed called the South American Chital deer. Like momma starts stomping @ 0.03 with her front left leg/hoof. Stomping is a DIRECT WARNING to whoever or whatever she is challenging, which is followed by an all out flailing attack with those sharp front hooves of theirs. They don't look so small when they are standing on their rear hooves & staring straight into ones eyes while flailing away with their front hooves. ALWAYS attempt to calm a momma down with a reassuring CALM voice. But if the stomping persists then finding another way to offer assistance is definitely advisable! This doe MAY be the Matriarch Doe of the herd meaning as the Boss of the herd she is NATURALLY AGGRESSIVE/DOMINANT. The two gentleman in the vid WISELY decided to find another way to offer momma assistance regarding the rescue.
Those two gentlemen put a smile on my face when I seen the two gates @ the end of the vid like that told me those two boys have what all of humanity needs to have, BIG HEARTS!
