One of the current projects we have going on the island is a fawn mortality study. A graduate student is collaring does and fawns. I've had the opportunity to help. Once collared the fawns are monitored to see how many survive and why the others are dying. Hate to say it, but this fawn has already been a bear snack. 
Some of the fawns are a lot better at hiding than others. Here's one that stands a good chance of survival.
This one...not so much. 
It sure is photogenic though.
