Jeremiah14:5

5 Yea, the hind also calved in the field and forsook it, because there is no grass .

Hinds use not to get their food in Fields, but upon the mountains and in Wildernesses but the drought was such, that these wild Creatures came into the lower grounds nearer the Habitations of men, than they were wont, and there brought forth their young. The Hinds are loving Creatures, and as all Creatures by a natural instinct love their young, so the Hinds especially, but their moisture being dried up, they could not suckle them, but were forced to leave them running about here and there to seek grass to eat.
