Why would it be dead ? How do you know the cat if that what it was didn’t get spooked by a car or something. Do you often see roe bucks walking about like the one in the video ? Quote Link to post

If a lynx gets hold of a roe, it lacerated its sides and chews its nose, its the same size if not bigger and ten times as strong and that's a smaller variety of big cat. no sign of cat damage on that deer. I have seen deer like the one in the video on a number of occasions and put them down, collision with traffic, barbed wire hanging, oilseed poisoning and anything attacking the nervous system. 1 Quote Link to post
