My son shot a doe last Saturday and it has hoof damage like I have never seen. We have seen the deer with what they call slippery foot. My son shot a doe years ago with crazy long slippery foot hoofs. This does hooves look like they got broken off. I'm wondering if it's because the area we hunt has been very wet. Then this last week the ground froze pretty hard. Wondering if maybe being chased around by hunters. Soft hooves on frozen ground caused this breakage??
Anyone else ever seen this or have thoughts on it.

These are the rear feet but the front hooves had same damage.
Two other deer we shot had nothing like this.

I'm assuming some kind of abscess that it has healed from...??? I know if that was a cows foot they wouldn't hard be able to walk they'd be so lame.

How does EHD impact their hooves? I don’t understand that connection

True that. This is a new one by me but makes sense.
