We have one or more? nearby. I saw him one night crossing the highway just as I was nearing our drive. I saw him again--or maybe another one-- running across the highway in front of my car when I was about 5 miles from home last night. We also have a panther (cougar) in the area. I've seen him only once, but others have seen him too.

When my granddaughter was visiting when she was 3, we were in the yard when I heard rustling in the leaves beside our drive. I signaled her with my finger to my lips to be quiet. A very young fawn stepped out into our drive. She yelled out, "Bambi! It's Bambi!" Of course it disappeared immediately back into the woods. For weeks after she returned home, she told everyone she saw that she saw Bambi at her Mil's (her name for me) house, and he lives in her woods.
