Buck with Large Tumor
I wanted to post a question here for you guys who have more experience out in the field. I do volunteer work at a county forest preserve. We were watching a buck chasing does around today and we noticed the buck had a huge tumor that hung in loose skin from his stomach close to his haunches. None of us had ever seen anything quite like this. What would cause that and would you walk away from this buck, cull it or keep it? He looked very healthy otherwise and was the correct weight etc. Thanks in advance for any info. Anne
