A post mortem examination was preformed on wild female roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) that was found in a state of distress and humanely killed. The hind legs of a fawn were protruding through the doe's rectum, indicating perinatal difficulties. Necropsy revealed two female foetuses, one of which had entered the birth canal in an uncommon position with the hind legs forward. This foetus had perforated the wall of uterine horn and rectum with the hind feet, causing gross intra-abdominal trauma and haemorrhage.
