Yea I had to do a double take on that photo after I gave my suggestion because there is ZERO thickness in there. No sage, no briars, nowhere for the deer to lay around and feel secure. A coyote or predator could be on them with the quickness and silently in that kinda wide open woods and they hate that. Need some trashy areas where predators can't just run free without making a crap ton of noise.
