Yep, as I thought that everyone knew that a fawn was just born in May or June in most northern areas and a yearling was a fawn the previous year and is now a year old and, thus, is called a yearling. I guess there are more out there that don't know the terminology than we thought! Even a fawn that is 4-6 months old is able to survive with no problem and is normally off the mother's milk well before hunting season starts even though you will see them try to nurse once in a while while out hunting.
