well its pretty rare for me. I have been hunting for the last 39 years and seen them on tv shows but never for real. Sent the pic to other veteran hunters I know and not one person has ever seen one while hunting or on any of there cameras. Checked with an outfitter in the area of my land who has thousands of acres he leases and runs hundreds of cameras and he has never seen this either, So I would say its definitely rare. One of my neighbors thinks he heard of someone in the area with a pet deer that wears an orange collar. We are still checking the situation out and will let you guys know what I found.
