Mule deer or just a mule?
Mule deer or just a mule?
I found this crazy little deer near my place in the Wasatch Front. I had to pull out my camera and try to get a comparison shot. This thing really looks like a mule to me.
I'm still working on my Henry Mt post. I'm hoping to get the buck scored this month sometime. I have not forgotten though!

Definitely Mule Deer, just a fawn/yearling. I want that Henry post.

LOL, i was a bit vague. I was sure it was a deer, but have you ever seen one that dark?
Unless I die of unforeseen causes, I will have the Henry post up soon I pulled the antlers out this week and sat and stared at them over a cold "dad shasta". Taxi won't need them for another couple weeks

I've seen them that dark yes, I think it's fairly common among the younger ones. Or at least it seems that way from memory.

Re: Mule deer or just a mule?
You definitely see where the name mule deer comes from. I'm excited for everyone to get to see your buck.
"Some day I'll scout out a monster, spot him while hunting, make the stalk of a lifetime, and have dreams come true. 'Til then I'll be happy with the buck in my cross-hairs."
