I just had never saw that type of marking on a deer before. Concerned me a little. Let me know what you find out from the biologist if you get a chance. Jeff,

I don't believe that it is molting because I have shots of deer in the middle of winter with the same thing. I also do not believe it is mange. I think that they just rub themselves bald while trying to relieve the itching of mites and fleas. When we kill one, I will check it out more closely to see if we can't figure it out. I also may take some of my shots by our local biologist to see what he has to say about the cause. I have tons of deer on camera with the exact same markings.

I thought possibly mange too. But what about molting? (or whatever they call it in mammals where they transition from summer coats to winter coats) It seems a bit early for that though.

Might want to pick up an extra doe permit to take get her out of the neighborhood. Looks like mange to me. Might want to pick up an extra doe permit to take get her out of the neighborhood.
