Can someone here identify these lumps?
I posted this pic on a couple other boards and haven't got a real solid answer as to what these lumps are on this doe. Sorry about the poor quality of the photo but I had to lower it to get the file size under 30kb

Rot, your right, you don't get no photo award by any means and its tough call to make but if I had to make a guess I would say possibly buckshot. Even that shot under the eye could of came from the same angle. That flap of skin hanging under the eyeball could be an exit. If it was buckshot I bet the opposite side of the deer doesn't have any exit wounds on it. Just curious what the other side of the deer looks like. Just a guess. Bobby

Rottweiler it could be tumors or it could be wounds, hard to tell from the pic quality. What time of year was the pic taken? If you want to email me the pic send it to [email protected]

Rottweiler thanks for sending me the pic, the quality is much better. What ever those lumps are, the one thing they are not is wounds, probably as already mentioned, tumors/growths of some sort. You may want to show that pic to a local game warden and see what he has to say about it.

Here is a link about fibromas. Not a good pic to go with it but check it out.

Contacted the local game warden. He gave me a " It's nothing serious" type answer. It almost seemed that he really didn't want to bother with me. Typical of most government employees I've dealt with
