Very nice buck. He would make a beautiful mount. That cancer above his eye brings a question. Would you guys eat that buck? Not me!
It's a skin tag, I've seen them much larger then this. I have never seen them below the surface of the skin. They don't bother the meat any. Eat away! I'm sure some deer do get tumors, though I haven't found one yet, but that's not one. By the way, Nice Buck!
awesome.. glad to see! Although I hope North Dakota bucks hold their velvet for one more week... I'd love to shoot a full velvet buck!
Sad to say but I believe that deer is diseased. last year multiple of the deer I found dead from disease had bumps above their eyes and bloodshot eyes...
