Deer Inflamed Hoof Thermal Footage (Hot Earth/Dark Nights)
August 27, 2009 - 7:54 pm
This deer is a member of the Bravo Clan, a city dwelling heard that I come across on a regular basis while wildlife prowling. Thermal imaging shows that its right/rear hoof is inflamed from aliment or injury. The deer also walks with a notable limp. The last time I encountered this deer it appeared considerably improved.

Glad to hear the deer’s condition has improved. This is going to be one of the main uses for my infrared camera once I receive it (probably will be a Electrophysics HOTSHOT HD-S w/640×480 optics).
I’ll eventually post some of animals (deer, coyotes, elk, hopefully bobcats and mountain lions) of the wildlife here in New Mexico.

Because this is a city dwelling deer it is a good bet that it was hit by a vehicle. We have a substantial deer population in and around the city and one or two get hit almost every day. Unfortunately the culture here dictates that having forward awareness when in control of a couple of tons of death and destruction is far less important than say, daydreaming.

how does a deer injure itself? i always thought animals are very unlikely to twist/dislocate their legs because of their innate skill…
