We got 9"" I've rain last weekend at our lease. It flooded as well. I was wondering how fawns react to high water or do their moms guide them from hazards?

I was thinking butterfly?

If it's moving, they can pretty easily drown. The Memorial Day flood wiped out a lot of our fawn crop last year.

Depends on how old they are and how they interpret the rain event. If they see a predator such as a coyote, they will likely lay still till it passes. But what about something like fire ants? If fire ants are biting them do they interpret it as a need to lay still or do they move? I would assume if the rain event was a slow soaker they would move. If it comes fast and hard, they may not have much of a chance. Same issue for bobwhite quail and turkey.

No idea really I would assume mommas move some and its probably not like a dam broke and a 6-foot wall of water hits them, as the water level rises I'm sure they start to move.

I have also seen a spotted fawn clear a 4-foot tall fence like it wasn't there, they are wild animals and have natural instincts to take care of them.

Speaking from experience they can be pretty stupid about haycutters,

Oh man...
