Brand new fawn in backyard

I have a brand new fawn trapped in my backyard. What do I do?
I live in a residential neighborhood although i have a wooded area behind my house with a very busy highway on the other side.

Post a picture.
You see a momma lately? Is it in danger?

It definitely needs another year

cook some rice
eta: On second thought after seeing the pic, it obviously needs another year. Check this out Orphaned Fawn Bottle Feeding Instructions

No momma in sight, just heard it crying while eating my lunch

damn that dude is cute. No idea what to do though. I would guess just leave it alone and let momma come find him.
I'll be honest though, hearing that little guy cry would break my heart.
ETA - i missed the 'trapped' part. How'd he get trapped? I might would help him out back to the woods.

No idea how he got inside my fence unless he was born last night

Keep an eye out for the mom. I bet she's coming back to nurse it. It will jump the fence when it gets big enough.

I'm always suprised how small fawns are.
Posted on 8/2/17 at 1:11 pm to Brodeur
Leave it be for a while. Momma will be there to check on it and get it to safety

Sounds like a trip to the Alamo is in your future.

Now there another one outside my fence. A baby about the same size.

Momma deer is addicted to sack corn and abondoned the fawns. Kill them both now so they don't suffer
ETA: if you are in city limits and can't shoot a gun. Hit them in the head with a hammer. Quick and painless
