This deer actually looks younger to me. Maybe 2. And quite rounded. The suckling hinds are inclined to be a bit slabby and rangy looking. Just an opinion.

+1. of the 6 or so hinds and fawns we watched last weekend they all fitted this description, something a younger/faster/keener hunter may not pick up on.
Although the reds we watched where all in good condition.
