Mule deer in Kapowsin?
« on: June 05, 2012, 04:17:59 PM »
Has anyone ever seen a mulie in Kapowsin? It wouldn't have crossed my mind until I was shed hunting and jumped 2 deer. one was a blacktail but the other was clearly a mulie. All I had with me was my phone sorry for the crappy picture but I think it's clear enough to tell. It had the white butt, small tail, huge ears and a different coloring then the other doe that was with it. What do you think?

I always figured it was far enough from the divide that they wouldn't be anywhere close to there. Until i saw this deer. Guess I figured wrong. I got to watch it for quite awhile through my binoculars and there is no question in my mind that it was 100% mulie. Must have wandered to far west and was trapped on the wrong side when the snow hit. :dunno:

Well, with there being moose in Wenatchee right now, and even Cle Elum, I sure don't doubt that there could be a mule deer in Kapowsin.
