Summett Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Just got a pic sent to me of a deer in front of one of my cameras. What do you think would cause these hair loss patches? Ticks? Disease? The one looks to be right down to nothing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leech~~ Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 A lot of times if it's ticks or mites the hair will be thinning around the bare area a lot more. This does look more like road rash since the hair is still thick right to the spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I agree- it does look like road rash to me. However, I know deer get all kinds of goofy thin spots and weird shedding patterns this time of year. Could be ticks or mites, like leech said. Hard to say for sure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
