Unsightly deer concerns Coloradoans, wildlife officials respond
2022-04-15

[FOXLA] Colorado wildlife officials say they have received multiple calls after people spotted an unsightly deer with growths all over its body.

Authorities said they checked on the deer and said the warts are cutaneous fibromas caused by a virus.

As unattractive as they may look, wildlife officials said the warts are not serious and the deer is considered fine.

"We are letting the deer be for now and will continue to monitor it," wildlife officials posted on their Facebook page.

#4  caused by a virus

You'd think they'd put it on lockdown and make all the other deer get masked and vaxxed or give up their deer gig.

#3  Many hunters would put the deer out of its “misery” and let it lie. If a hunter did harvest it I seriously doubt it would be eaten upon closer inspection. A commercial deer butcher wouldn’t want it in his shop.

DEEPER THOUGHT
They cure the outer appearance and a few years later a hunter feeds his family with the meat.
