Wildlife Reminder

Greetings Campus Community,

Wildlife sightings around campus are a common occurrence. However, this time of year, a fawn may be spotted curled up in the grass, under a shrub, or tucked next to a building. Please do not approach them - they are fine and do not need assistance. The doe is typically nearby searching for food and will return to care for the fawn. Deer commonly do this to keep the fawns safe when they are too young to run from predators.

Thank you for helping to keep the campus a safe and healthy environment for both people and wildlife.
