Wow, looks like it may have been a birth defect. Being it is missing from the actual body and not just part of the leg. Nice pics.

Thats a great pic. There used to be a 3 legged doe on the farm that I bowhunted when I was a kid, but her's was missing from just above the knee. I saw her for 5-6 years and having 3 legs never slowed her down a bit.

Was a 3 legged doe here about 3 years ago. First time I saw her, she had a yearlng with her. They came out in a open field about 30 yards from me where I was burning brush. Paid no attention to me. Two years ago a friend creased her back during bow season, We trailed, but very little blood and lost the trail. I did not see her this year, but I feel she is still around.

That is a great picture, I have never seen a deer with one leg that was from birth, I have seen a few that were shot off. That is a good picture!!!

What a great pic!!!! As stated by someone else, seems like he was born with out a leg. If it got torn off, I don't think it would look so clean. Cool pic.

thats remarkable that he has made it so long, I can't imagine being a 3 legged deer, has to be harder on him out there
