Pretty lean
« on: June 12, 2010, 08:57:35 AM »
This little buck isn't healthy and the bigger one looks real lean.  My guess is the little one won't make it till fall.

We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

With as wet a spring as we are having, I would think they would be fat and happy :dunno:  Any idea what the problem is Gringo?
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The little one in the back looks like a "lunger".  He only ran about 200 yards while I was taking pics and he is sucked up behind the ribs and had his mouth open the whole time.  Look at the hip on the bigger buck.....fair amount of bone showing.  Like I said, I think the bigger one will make it, the yotes will get the smaller one.

But no, I don't know why these two look poor.  The good news is that they all don't look this way.
