The third day, Angela and Keith had two new babies. These came to them injured. One was hung up on a fence for hours before it was rescued. The second was one found by a man who found the mother and baby on the side of the road. The mother was dead. Both babies were taken care of on the hour by Keith and Angela but they didn't survive. The very next day, they had a phone call from a woman who was 25 miles away who had come across a baby deer- a buck- who was crying and wandering about by himself for many hours, no mommy around. The baby was named Elliot. He was then 4 days old and was and still is thriving! A baby deer is so fragile especially when mommy isn't around.
