When Jody’s mother heard that he, was going to bring the fawn home, she was s a little surprised and asked Jody what fawn he WEIS talking about. He then told her that ‘ it was the fawn whose mother they had killed; to save, Penny. She said they had nothing else to feed it and only the milk they gave him could be given to it. She reacted this way because she was not present at the site where Penny had been bitten, where they; had killed the doe. She had not seen the fawn and therefore, was not as concerned as Penny and Jody.
