Just be glad you didn't find it when you were swathing or mowing, and didn't see it until after it was all cut up. Them little things, you just can not see until it's to late, when they are laying down in knee high or taller hay. And they usually won't move until you hit into them. Instinct is to sit tight until momma shows back up.
The thing to do, is just go around it and leave it be. It's mom will be back, unless she got hit by a car.
If these fawns get scared and run off, I think deer are better about finding them, then say cattle are. If a calf gets up, and goes through a fence, a cow can't get to them.

And if not, the game warden usually finds out and takes it away. About the best ending I ever heard of, was one deer that was taken away, ended up in a zoo. The people were still heart broke when they were not allowed to remain keeping it.
