Hopefully this picture will post. I have a trail pic of a yearling that looks like it may have been attacked by a bobcat. I’m guessing bobcat because all the damage appears to be around the head/neck region and I thought coyotes usually wear them down by attacking the backside first. Also not ruling out some kind infection or what not. What does Aldeer think? [img]https://imgur.com/a/FbrCqJZ[/img]

Likely just a random injury by barb wire or who knows what. I see nothing that would make me think a bobcat was involved

Deer has some kind of infection going on. No telling what caused it, IMO. Hair missing on legs, etc.

Got it’s head hung in something.

With the hair missing on the front leg, definitely think it got hunt up in a fence or something.

Poor thing.

Could have got rolled up under a car. She dont look like she feels good

And this is why I come to the experts. I didn’t even notice the hair missing on the front leg. Hopefully it’ll recover and keep on trucking. Thanks for the replies.

Had one slide under my truck about 5-6 miles north of thomaston. Think i may hav broke her leg. She laid there good while so i Went back to finish her and she got up and limped off. Hope she made it

Bobcat tore it up

Rottweiler

Need to slip it some Penicillin when it isn't looking.

Ole boy liked it rough…

Classic big cat attack

Kind of surprised no one has guessed black painter.

Are black painters bad about wounding deer? Sounds like an interesting topic.

They don’t wound deer. They kill deer. Be like comparing a 6.5/243
