when that happens is the animal safe to eat. some hoof rot looks pretty nasty.
 
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

If you knew how many beef cattle go through a slaughter plant with feet like this , so yes it is safe to eat. It's more to do with to much protein in there diet.

Swamp buck? A few years back, my buddy got a big old buck that lived in the swampy marsh bottoms and his hooves looked the same.

Yep--hooves are like fingernails or dog claws.  They grow constantly, and if the deer don't walk on dry ground the hooves don't get worn down.
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"
