I almost didn’t take this photograph. I sat at the scene contemplating for nearly twenty minutes before deciding to take it. Several questions ran through my head: How can this happen to such a young, innocent, defenseless animal? Was it a predator? Did it wander away from its mother? I do not know, and perhaps I never will. This scene illustrates how remarkably fragile life is and that sometimes questions that we may have simply cannot be answered. We all must learn to accept these unanswered questions as one of the many mysteries of life.
