Had a basket 8 go through the back yard this morning, had all his legs but the front right was broke right at the joint. Car hit I think, looked painful. in 2017 we got 3 deer first was broken a basket 8 front leg busted at the knee looked fresh like it had been hit with a slug earlier that day. 2nd was a doe running nearly the same speed as all the rest on the first joint of the rear leg looked car hit recently dirt in the cartilage. 3rd was a healed over front shoulder and leg hit , the shoulder was about 1/2 the size of the other , the knee joint was huge like an apple and I found broken ribs. there were a lot of car deer hits that year.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

20 years or so ago I had a 3 legged doe running around my area where I used to live. You could tell her from the others when she walked. Kinda hopped with only one front leg. But when she ran it was like the wind, just like all other deer on a run. She wound up having at fawns for at least 8 years that I caught her on my cameras. Don't know if she was born that way, had a leg shot off, got caught high with a snare or what ever. She had no stub or scaring that I could see and I had plenty of pictures of her at my cameras. I was sad when she no longer showed up. She was a joy to watch and kinda an inspiration, seeing she had a major handicap. Gotta respect and admire all living creatures!

Had this old gal around our hunting area for around 7 years. Named her Trips. Her missing leg looked like this the firt trail cam pic we had of her. Have no idea haw she got this way but she was one tough cookie. Smart too! In all those years, she was only seen from the stand 2 times by my boys and I. We had already agreed that she would get a pass from us but she never really gave us an opportunity to take her out even if we wanted too. Most years she raised twins. Like the previous poster, we were sad when we stopped getting pictures of her. Assume she died of natural causes or got hit by a car. Never heard of anyone claiming to have killed her.
