When does a fawn lose its spots?

Fawns typically lose their spots between the ages of 3 and 6 months. However, the exact timing can vary depending on factors such as:

* Species: Some deer species, like white-tailed deer, tend to lose their spots sooner than others, like mule deer.

* Individual variation: Fawns within the same litter might lose their spots at slightly different times.

* Environmental conditions: Factors like food availability and climate can influence the rate of growth and development, potentially affecting spot loss.

It's important to remember that some spots might linger on a fawn's coat for a longer period. Even after most spots have faded, you may still notice faint traces of them, especially on the fawn's flanks and legs.
