What kind of animal did I see?

I’ve heard a fawn do a very loud “eeeeeeeeeh” before. Kind of like a sheep but more of a wail. We’d just finished a trail run and my girlfriend was lying on a tarp to stretch, a momma deer passed by, but the baby was utterly terrified by the stretching-tarp-monster! :eek: It was too scared to try to catch up to momma deer.

Could it have been a very, very young fawn?

You nailed it. I saw the same creature again about two miles from the previous location, about 1 hour ago, only this time a doe was nearby. I’ve never seen a fawn so small, so coloured and I’ve never heard vocalization from a deer before.
