Some Big Questions

Will this pumpkin growing outside my garden with leaves now spreading down the hill last 71 days till Halloween? Will this pumpkin survive deer, rabbit and possible alien attacks? Will this pumpkin survive an early frost (that is if we have one)?
So many unanswered questions with my first ever attempt at pumpkin growing. I took several pictures today for posterity-just in case it should
a. be abducted and disappear in the night
b. get attacked by wild animals
c.  rot and lose shape
d. get stolen by nearby garden gnomes
So now the best I can do is remain ever hopeful for 71 days of survival!
