I believe the answer is:

fawns

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'deer' is the definition.
(I have computed that (IsStrictlyEqualTo (MultipleOf 3fe28ad9) (MultipleOf 3fe28ad9))\nI know that fawn is a type of deer\nTherefore, ((IsStrictlyEqualTo (MultipleOf 3fe28ad9) (MultipleOf 3fe28ad9)) (IsSubclassOf 3fe28ad9 29ec155e)))

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for fawns that I've seen is " Young deer (plural)".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
