deer just hanging around


Recommended Posts


Whilst walking on the state near me, i found 2 roe doe's like this, with there bag legs caught on the top strand of barbed wire on a sheep fence, I checked for cut throats or bullet wound's and could not find anything, alway's baffled me what had made them do this, especially 2 within such a short distance??? :hmm:

Yep it's a sad sight, but just like a dog, if it mis judges a jump over a stock fence then chances are its going to end up hanging upside down..

But 2, within a few metres of each other, at the same time? I would love to of known the story behind it, shame as well as I used to love 'watching' the deer on my local estate.

If they were still warm you should have gralloched them and away with the carcases......fence kill!

 

I checked mate, they looked at least a day old, maybe more, plus it had been a good hot week, so I just cut them down, not sure why, more out of respect than anything, within a few days the foxes, badgers and crows had made short work of them

I'd guess at after the first one got hung up the other was in and about seeing what all the comosion was about, a few jumps from one side to the other and the same fate was sealed..possibly a doe and her yearling??
