This looks like your typical north Texas community. Roosters crowing, dogs and cats playing, and a pen of goats impatiently waiting to get out of their cage.
But if you look closer, you'll notice something very different, a fawn is grooming members of the herd. And even grooming neighbors.
It's an odd sight for neighbor Carol Givan, "The fawn with a goat is new for me." Carol says a very sad situation led to her getting this new neighbor. "The mother of this fawn was somewhere in town, and she'd been shot. And she was having the baby."
So some quick thinking members of the community hauled the fawn to it's new home. "These people have milk goats, so they brought it out here to be raised by one of them," explained Givan.
Carol says it didn't take long for the fawn to take to the goat milk. Regardless, this pairing is something she thought she'd never see. "I've heard of it, but no, not in person."
Carol says her daughter called the game warden to come check on the fawn. The warden will either allow the fawn to stay with the herd or move it to a nearby animal sanctuary.
