Creator Transcript
  • Victoria, B.C. [British Columbia] Dec. [December] 13/39 [1939]. Hard rainstorm with violent winds all park deer feeding in open behind shelter of bushes at 12 N [noon]. Doe was seen to lick water from back of her fawn. These two are frequently together now + the buck has not been noticed to actively chase either one of them since the mating took place. Food. In conversation with supervisor of Quinsam Forest Project. He states they found a young [male symbol] fawn in the bush near the road where it had been heard bleating off + on for several hours. It had not been cleaned after it was born + had apparently been deserted at birth. A doe fawn was also raised by them this summer. He remarked to me that he had observed that deer eat fir almost invariably after willow. Sometimes he has seen them eat willow, lie down for a bit + upon raising go directly to fir. This confirms my observations Marginalia: Maternal behaviour
