COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A fourth wildlife attack in Colorado this season occurred near Colorado Springs Friday evening when an aggressive female deer stomped on a person's dogs and charged a pregnant woman. No injuries were reported.

CPW said the woman heard screaming from her backyard and rushed outside to find her two dogs getting stomped by the deer. When she tried to scare the animal away, the deer reared up in its hind legs and charged in her direction. After the incident, a fawn believed to belong to the deer was located nearby and taken to a wildlife rehabilitation facility where it will be raised and released back into the wild, CPW said in a news release.

This is the fourth attack by wildlife in Colorado in the past 30 days and the second one on the same day.
