Triplets?


There was this photo from a recent round-up of trail camera photos - three fawns and one doe (in the background).

Is there another doe that escaped the steady surveillance of the camera?

Or have we the rare set of triplets?  Female deer can give birth to one to three fawns.  Two is very common.  I am told there is a 14% chance of triplets.

No matter how you slice it there sure are a large number of whitetails on the landscape....
