    FYI: Dunno whether there’s any trick to the image, but young deer are in fact that size at the age when they take their first steps.

  • eustace

    Nothin’ magical here; all little deer will do that if you wiggle your fingers just right.

    Shopped.I can tell from the pixels, and having seen a few ‘shops in my time.

    /sorry.

    Of course it’s ‘shopped, but it’s also a Dik Dik. Look at the animal’s nose.

    Notice how the shadow moves a bit but doesn’t change shape. So fake.

    I’ve been looking for shoes just like that, but I can’t find them anywhere. Can anyone help me out?

  • That Evening Sun

    There is no such thing as magical deer. The deer is obviously trapped by this mysterious giant woman’s Force-driven invisible tractor beam.
