Deadroe Buck.....


Recommended Posts

I get called to remove deceased wildlife of all sorts from time to time but in the last 10 days I have had to collect 2 dead Roe Buck from fields around 12 miles apart.

 

One on a stables and one a farm, there was no sign of any external trauma and nothing suggesting a RTA. Both looked around 2 years old, both in velvet and certainly not old enough to die of old age.

 

Both actually looked in good shape (bearing in mind they were dead), is this just a wildlife coincidence or is something doing the rounds?

 

Cheers

This time of year it's not uncommon to come across a odd roe buck dead, stressful time or year for them, I gralloched one a few yr ago, I came across in a field edge, just to see if I could find anything, the only thing I found, was it's liver was knackered, with flukes, it hadn't been dead long, other than that it looked good, body weight was normal, nothing noticeable at all,

Natures wastage ? if the population in one area is too high
