Hmm well we dont call em that around here. A fawn is a fawn until it is a year old "a yearling" in our book at least. Call it what you will but I guess I've never heard to many people call a fawn a yearling. So your basically saying a fawn that has just been born is a yearling? Seems goofy to me I guess. We grew up raising calves ad showin at fairs and a calf is condisered anythign less than a year old and a yearling class is anythgin older than a year but not 2 years old. WCL
This is all I was trying to say Early. I thought a yearling meant a year old deer which would put it being a yearling around May and June. I'm not trying to start an argument here.

year·ling- An animal that is one year old or has not completed its second year.
