I haven’t found them yet but I don’t think a single one of these bucks is left alive in noble. Just going to be a deer watching season for me
 
I see Gallia has some confirmed deaths now. It looks like Lawrence has a few too. I wonder how hard Gallia and Lawrence counties will get hit. It is probably hard to track deaths in those counties with all the national forest. Any word?
 
View attachment 212437This doe layed in front of the camera for several hours last week. Her fawn would walk up to her several times and she wouldnt move.raised her head a few times she looked pretty sick. This will be 3 out of last 4 years we have been hit with ehd. Hoping it's not too bad this time around.
I was hoping things were settling down and new cases were going down. Guess not. My buddy in Meigs Co. hasn't been finding any new dead ones but he's also not seeing deer at all anymore. Was watching a bean field for a good while almost daily and only had two fawns coming out in it, eventually they disappeared as well.
