Bambi in the Grass

Finding an orphaned or injured animal can be exciting. If you find a cute fawn curled up in the grass, you might think you have found an orphaned Bambi. You might want to help the animal or take it home as a pet. Is this a good idea? Here are some things to think about if you find a wild animal that seems to be in trouble.


First of all, the creature might not be an orphan! A fawn might look as cute and lonely as Bambi, but its mother might have hidden it in the grass so she could take a break and have a bite to eat. After all, being a mom of any species can be a lot of work. Moms get hungry, too!
