It is thought she might have mysophobia - a fear of dirt.

I went for a hike yesterday, and look at what I found! His mom saw us coming and immediately ran off, but this little guy tip-toed toward us for a second to check us out and then just sat down in the leaves so we could check him out. I’ve had several close encounters with fawns before, but I never got to actually pet one, so I couldn’t resist the likely only chance I’ll ever have to do so. This guy was probably less than two weeks old. I’ll admit several manly “d’awwws” were had.

I AM SCREAMING INTO THE MIST ANY I AM NEVER COMING BACK

They fought for those who’d been abandoned, they fought for one another, and they were betrayed. Men like them always are. What good would a statue be? It’d just inspire new fools to believe they’re going to be heroes. They wouldn’t want that. Just let them be. Forever.”
