Not exactly who I was looking for on my first set of pics but,, glad to she she has made it another year. Kids have named her Hoppy. She will always get a pass. Last year had a fawn on her side.
 
She's relentless, as the pic shows. Deer are survival machines all the way around. Thanks for sharing.
 
I've seen bucks and does like that. They learn to compensate. I've seen 3 legged bucks after does during the rut that never missed a stride.
 
They can get along pretty dang good with three legs . First year I hunting Giles there was a giant doe killed that had three legs and the dude that run the farm said she had to be 5 or 6 years old , dang I bet she weighed about 150 # .
 
She will have very little trouble doing most anything she wants, matter of fact at a walk is about the only time you will likely be able to identify her while in a group of deer at a distance. We had a doe tear a front leg off in a fence one year (have pic of the leg in the fence somewhere here) and she was seen routinely on our farm for the next 2 years raising fawns and acting as normal as any deer on the place.
 
Had one at our old lease 20yrs ago when I was in elementary school that I shot off accidentally. We saw her for 3yrs after and always let her walk.
