What’s the diagnosis

[Popcorn]

This young buck has had this leg growth all summer. He lives in a thick as hadies thicket and the growth is bleeding every time I see him. I imagine him really screwing up someone's blood trac! I have seen him in person several times and he is rather docile, only moving to remain at least 20 yards distance. Only in this series of pics have I noticed the place on the side of his head and the bizarre anal growth. This is way beyond anything I have seen as warts and they are usually gone by now. For those in the know, what is this? Saw a 1.5 year old on 13th that had multiple similar but smaller growths within a half a mile of this buck.

Wow, never seen anything like that. My guess is some type of cancer.

That's wild. Sad for that deer. He's clearly suffering. Needs to be put down.

Put him down popcorn. Not sure how a group of coyotes haven't come upon him yet. May want to call up the GW and ask if it's ok

Monkey pox

I'd have to put that deer down-even if it meant burning a tag. Its hard for me to explain but It detracts from what a majestic animal he would be. Sad to see that.

Would also suggest cancer of some sort with it appearing to be in more than one place on his body. Definitely not warts.

Looks like sarcoids never seen one as large as the front leg. Needs euthanasia.
