Diem (J. Wildl. Manage. 18(4):537-538, 1954) used an artificial deer call imitating a bleating fawn to determine if does had young nearby. White et al. (J. Wildl. Manage. 36(3):897-906, 1972) observed that a bleating fawn often attracted other deer, especially dams. We attempted to use tape-recorded calls for location of Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) fawns from 10 June to 1 August 1976 as part of a deer population dynamics and movement study at Rocky Flats, Colorado. This article presents results of observations made on deer after playing fawn distress calls and discusses the effectiveness of this technique in locating mule deer fawns.
