Neck and legs look out of proportion. But depending on herd some mustangs have crap conformation with short necks.

Regardless that deer looks off. Could be a camera angel or lens thing but it looks off.

Wife said thet could just be an awkward stage like a puppy with ears or paws to big that they grow into. Who knows?


Definitely odd to be in spots this time of year. Maybe very young or old mother would be my guess.

Not a white tail. Unless severe inbreeding
Looks like a female water deer. Should’ve called the wildlife biologist first testing. If you google it you’ll see the males have fangs but most females they aren’t noticeable There was a show on outdoor channel last month they were hunting them. Same color phase as most females Big question is how did it get there
But did some digging and apparently they were brought to United States in the early 1900s. There are several small herds out west but also Ben reports of them up north and then even in Canada apparently they can survive cold weather.
