Trivia: Reportedly, the number of deer that were hunted in the US fell by nearly 50% for several years after the film's release. This has sometimes been attributed to the film anthropomorphizing deer and making them more relatable. The film is also known for helping coin the term "The Bambi Effect," in which people are somewhat less likely to hunt or kill animals that are as cute.
