Deer effortlessly fly over a high fence. Video shows the awesome grace and power of the whitetail deer as they leap over a high wire fence. The fence including the barbed wire above it was about 5 feet high. Very cold winter day. Also shows jumps in slow motion.
The deer hear near-by gun shots and know they are in danger.
A fawn seemed unable to jump the fence. Its mother looked very concerned. She watched it. The deer stayed by the fawn and did not leave, although a hunter was shooting. The deer were protective of the fawn, even though they were in danger. Note the body language and tail signals, for example, before the last deer jumped the fence watch it and the fawn flash their white tails.
Several times the deer were startled by the hunter's gun shots. They jerked, looked around, and then jumped the fence.

** Some of the world's largest bucks live in Ohio. Some of its world champion bucks have Boone and Crockett scores of over 300 points. Ohio's Beatty Buck may be the (or among the) largest ever taken by a hunter. That title of the largest whitetail, ever, in the record books belongs to the "Missouri Monarch," a 333-7/8 buck found dead on the side of a road in 1982 near St. Louis. In second place is the legendary "Hole in the Horn," found dead in Ohio in 1940, however, many whitetail experts think that it is actually the largest set of whitetail deer antlers in history. It may be the most famous whitetail known.
The male white-tailed deer, or buck (Odocoileus virginianus - normally called the whitetail), can weigh up to around 400 pounds and the female up to 175 pounds. Males of one year or older have antlers. Young bucks with very small antlers are called button bucks. When the antlers begin to grow in the late spring, they are covered with a very vascular tissue known as velvet or moss. This drops off later. The Boone & Crockett scoring system is used to rate antlers or racks. Bucks shed their antlers at the end of breeding season (rut). Some female deer also have antlers. The piebald or white deer, a deer having more white than normal but not an albino, is very rare
Deer have an amazing assortment of communicative signs. Approximately 100 different vocalizations have been recorded, such as tending grunts, dominant grunts, bleats, and many others. They make extensive use of sign language. The whitetail is found throughout most of the U.S., southern Canada, Central America, and in the northern portions of South America. It is a generalist, which can adapt to a wide variety of habitats, including woodland, open savanna, and even sage areas.
What ever happened to the Fawn?

I don't know. It was a freezing cold day and I thought I had better leave them alone and not bother them any more.
