We have a ranch in Northern San Saba county and we have had two deer that have died. They were both bucks and both had already shed there horns. 75%+ of the deer still have their horns. One was young one was old. Did this just happen on accident or do you think there is some kind of sickness killing them. These are the only two that we have found there might be more
Thanks, Jchap
P.S. One was found inside a feeder pen which seemed weird to me that the deer was strong enough to jump in but couldn't jump out??

If I'm not hunting something I must be dead.

have your local GW check them out x2 yea there may be a issue that you may be able to prevent.
