any ideas ?
what do you think is on the neck of the buck on the right ? i was thinking ticks, but it seems strange that they are all grouped up.

I don't think its a cluster of ticks as he could rub off many of them. Looks like the skin tumors. I sawthem on deer fer abit over 50 yrs. Not the same deer but during my hunting time

I have several trail camera pic's of a young Spike Buck that has several ticks clustered up on the back side of each ear where he can't reach...never saw any located in a spot that close to where they could reach by raising its back leg and scratch?I bet its something else like everyone is mentioning?Keep any eye on that specific Deer and see if You get a closer picture!

Well Bloodsaw I Googled deer warts and I'm hoping thats what it is. I'm hoping its not a misplaced shot. I've never seen anything like it on any of my pics before. Thanks for the replys. I added another pic of him as well.
