Resting Deer Lying Down With Head Turned

A young deer lies on the ground with its legs folded neatly beneath its body, drawn in a single bold outline. The neck stretches up in a graceful curve and the head faces left, with a long narrow snout, a small nose, and a closed or sleepy-looking eye. One upright ear points up and a second ear sticks out toward the back. The rounded back and hip lead down to the folded hind leg, and the front hooves rest flat along the bottom of the page. There is no background, so kids can focus on the animal itself. This free printable works well for a lesson on forest animals. Try soft browns and tans for the body, then a darker shade for the nose, ear edges, and hooves.
