I want to preface this by saying I am a certified wildlife rehabilitator in my state. I work in conjunction with a vet, whom is currently on vacation in Alaska. His associate is going to try to work me in tomorrow, but there are no guarantees, so here I am.
The family that farms my ground, ran...
Hello,
I am not a deer farmer so I am looking for some help with a deer we found today. Earlier this morning, a deer got stuck in a fence and someone found him and alerted us. He is clearly injured on both hips and he stayed still while we removed him from the fence. He does not seem like a...
I have an 11 week old fawn that has been limping a little on his front foot. Today he seemed worse. I checked it out and looks very red and even a little blood. Appears to be an infection or something on the pad. What would anybody recommend for treatment? Thank you so much for any advice!
This is my first post. I am not a deer farmer. I am a taxidermist and a deer hunter. I hope I can glean some valuable information from the knowledgeable people on this forum. I am getting trial cam pics of a mature whitetail. He has a very badly injured back leg. I am not an expert but it seems...
My buck has injured his antler. At first it looked like a drop tine but now it’s starting to swell. My question is should I remove it or just watch it? I’m attaching the best picture I could get of it. Thank you for any advice you can give me. I’ve raised deer for 9 years and this is the first...
Hi all thank you for adding me. I just added an injured fawn too my list of daily responsibilities, she was found on side of the road orphaned and hit by a vehicle. After jabbing her for only about an hour she appears to have a
right broken hip. Can anyone tell me if she starts to eat and is...
Well first I'd like to thank everyone on here for their support and efforts in helping us with our little girl. I'm sad to say that we had to put her down today, as her condition was deteriorating and her appetite etc was leaving her as well. We couldn't watch her suffer or go down hill any...
Hello new to this forum and looking for some helpful info!
I have raised a doe for the past year. We found her as a baby and have had her ever since. Throughout the winter she would come and go as she pleased and seemed fine. Recently we hadn't seen her for several weeks and two days ago she...
My favorite bottle-fed doe injured her foot today and I'm not sure what to do for her. At noon she was fine, playing/kicking in a water puddle. When I saw her at 3pm, she was limping badly on a hind foot. There is a lot of brush in the pen, so my guess is a stick punctured her foot. She will...
I DO NOT hunt therefore have no clue of how to track an injured deer. Here is my question; my neighbor allowed someone to hunt on her property (bow) and this person shot a deer about 5-8 ft from my property line. I did not realize this was taking place until my deer shot across the yard with...
