I’ve heard of blacktails showing up in the Wilkeson/Carbonado area from time to time so that doesn’t suprise me too much. I don’t think wdfw does a good job of spreading the word to them that they’re supposed to stay on the other side of the PCT

I’ve seen a lot of deer around Enumclaw, but never a mule deer. I’ve seen them up around crystal mountain near the crest. Just kind of weird to see one down low I guess.

Looks like a Muley butt to me. I feel like with the extreme increase In wolves, cougars, black Bears, reintroduction of grizzly bears etc. Home ranges for many of our animals in Washington are out the window. I am seeing Whitetail where I have never seen them before as well as moose. With all the massive tracks of prime habitat, completely void of ungulates tells me they are not moving because of lack of food, water or cover. It’s the predators hunting them 24/7 365 that continue to push them away from those areas and onto these new land scapes
