I am a baby White-tailed Deer
I appear to be alone at the moment
But my mom and dad are probably close by
And they do not appreciate human encroachment.
(I saw some people who got way too close to this deer today. If you see a baby dear, or any young wild animal, it is always best to leave it alone. As described in the article linked below, deer are generally pretty chill, but if you get too close to one of their babies, they will try to hurt you. Just because you don't see the parent, it does not mean it can't see you.)
