Tomcat

Baby

Fawn

Cub

The correct answer is

Baby

Fawn (baby deer) and Cub (baby bear/lion/etc.) are species-specific names for young animals. Tomcat is an adult male cat — not an offspring. Baby is a generic, non-species-specific term. The three non-generic animal terms are Tomcat, Fawn, and Cub; Baby stands out as the only word not specific to a particular animal category. Hence Baby is the odd one out.
