I new that coons hit turkeys nest, but I didn't realize they would kill a new born fawn if it where to come upon one. All the more reason to lower the population of coons when you can. This is the latest topic on Grow Deer TV (GDTV#58) : http://www.growingdeer.tv/#ep/58

I thought maybe it was a bit of a stretch.

You think a doe is just going to sit there and watch a coon eat her new fawn? She would stomp it until it became part of the dirt. My view anyway, and I have taken wildlife biology. Mind you it was a long time ago and maybe the deer have changed into meek and mild critters. NOT!!!

I have pics of a deer putting the stomp pose on a coon over a pile of corn, so they would definitly stomp one to protect her fawn.
