Found them in a doe today. Those are the tenderloins on each side.

I can't say I'm an expert when it comes to deer anatomy, but I've gutted, skinned, butched, deboned, and trimmed off fat of, at best guess, about 30 deer in my life and that's the first I've ever seen of anything that looks like that. Maybe it's common in some parts of the country and not in others (?) (all I've been dealing with is Missouri, mostly grain-fed, deer) but I would've been surprised too if I opened one up and saw that. Maybe on deer #31 I'll be surprised....)

I've only seen this, in that area, on does, and not every one that I've taken. That's why I believed it to be fawn nursing related, particularly the way the fawns will '" bang the sack " with their heads, possibly causing small capillaries to rupture.
