Shooter08 0 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 eyup guys, 1st post in this section so dont really know what im on about but anyway... we went looking for some roe earlier, started walking down the hedge side, pal spots the deer lying down in the hedge bottom with his bino's, which is suprising we saw anything due to the great snow blizzards were having here and with the sun going down quite quick, anyway we switched sides of the hedges so the smell wouldnt go her way, got the sticks out, lined her up, but she saw us and ran a few metres, she looked again, then looked away,..... bang" down on all fours roe was in good condition but it had a broken jaw and what looks like a tumor ? or maybe just swollen alot?

martin 332 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hi,have you exposed the lump,and,have you any pics? Also have you checked the lymph nodes as they should tell a tale as well,you should really try to bone up a bit on this sort of thing if you are going to take up stalking seriously mate,as it might not be fit for the food chain.......so,more pics please.........Martin.

Shooter08 0 Posted December 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 hi Martin, it was my mate and 2 of his mates who came through from manchester, there both professional deer stalkers, they took the head off and they are going to skin it and see what it is, you could see abit of broken bone in there but apart from that we didnt really know so hes going to examine it Quote Link to post
mattydski 560 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 (edited) If it's swollen lymph nodes in the Jaw, check for broken teeth as well. Sometimes that can cause them to puff up. Edited December 18, 2009 by mattydski Quote Link to post
