I was walking to one of my cameras this afternoon to pull the card, then all of a sudden the grass moves about two feet in front of me. I hear the worst sound I ever heard and jumped about ten feet due to be scared to death. I "flushed" a fawn and it ran off and bleated twice. I have never heard that before in person and it definitely caught me off guard and scared the $#%@ out of me until I realized what happened.
Mom was in the woods snorting, so I immediately turned around and didn't check that card.
My wife is of course mad at me for scaring the fawn, yet she has no concern for me almost filling my pants from fear.
Anyway, this is a "trail cam" thread and I was on the way to my trail cam so thought I would share, even without pictures. It is a stretch, I know.

I am pretty sure this is my wide buck. You can see he is already as wide as his ears. And his left brow tine has always been shorter than the right for the last 3 Years.

Wildest thing I’ve caught on camera.
Ouch! I bet it is an absessed tooth. That has to hurt.
This guy has a pretty big body. Any ideas how old he may be?
Just a guess, I’m no expert by any means but 41/2-5.
I’ve got a doe that had a mass like that for 2 seasons. It just got smaller this past winter but it has still not gone totally away. Didn’t affect her much. She still raised healthy fawns.
I remembered she was here last year looking the same way. She had a fawn on her and it was very poor and the doe looked like she was on her death bed both were skinny as all get out.
Really surprised she lived.

I agree, he has some belly showing maturity and not going downhill yet. Best way to know age is to tooth him,
