Not usually except for the prerut where they tend to be in bachelor groups and sparring to attract a mate. Though once in a while during a drought you will see them in groups usually to find forage and water that isn't devastated by the drought such areas as spring fed rivers are common places you will see them herding during droughts. This may not be true in all areas i only speak from my own experience in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin

Unless with a fawn they travel alone. At times, twin fawns will travel without the doe but together.
