    Good luck...
    Do you have an opinion as if he makes it or not?

        I had a three legged deer hobble by me about 15 years ago. I was rifle hunting and had only a few seconds and I decided to take him because I felt he was suffering. When I got to him his antlers were almost grown together and his leg was missing at the shoulder. The wound was old and healed up. I’m not sure how long he had been like that but I felt a little bad for shooting him. He was a resilient old buck for sure. They are tough.

          I posted this last year. Killed in MS late season with a rifle. They are tough animals

            I had this one coming last year, and although he had water and food close to good cover once the rut hit my father in law ended up shooting him close to 2-3 miles from this spot

              I’d give better than even odds he’ll live. Looks like a broken leg. Maybe hit by a car?

              The tissue will die off around a bad break and the leg will fall off. I make my living in the brush and can count on one hand the number of deer I’ve come across killed by infection. Predators may get them while they’re weak, but they almost never succumb to infection.

                Well, that is a plus for him. He doesn't have to move much, he might make it. Deer are very tough. Buzzards will let you know whats up.
