During the winter and spring deer continue to move in familial groups. Usually one or two does and their fawns from the prior year.
Later this year as the current year crop of fawns are born the yearlings will be kicked-loose to completely fend for themselves. If they are girl deer there's a strong chance that in good habitat like southern Door County a majority of them will be pregnant by the time winter rolls-around.
Amazing, eh?
