Looking back through my previous blog posts, I realized that I did not share with you that “My Baby Boy” was injured. On November 23rd, I noticed “My Baby Boy” limping severely! His right rear ankle was very swollen, and I felt great concern! What should I do? I didn’t think he would be willing to get in my car and head to the veterinarian, so what should I do?
I decided to call the Calaveras Big Trees State Park and talk to one of the rangers. The ranger I talked to was very understanding and supportive. She provided me with the numbers for three wildlife rehabilitation centers.Â
- The Mother Lode Wildlife Care 209-677-7249
- Rose Wolf Wildlife 209-206-6243
- Tri-County Wildlife Care 209-283-3245
A representative at each organization assured me that deer are incredibly resilient creatures, and if I leave him alone, he will probably recover just fine. These organizations do not have the licensing to sedate a large animal like this and then take it to rehab. Besides, adult deer do not do well with close human contact. Even the rescued fawns are only in rescue facilities for short periods. It was challenging to keep my emotions in check because this wasn’t just any deer; this was “My Baby Boy!“
He quietly stayed in the places that he was comfortable, but always close to the house and my view. Finally, I went out to talk to him, and he looked at me and seemed to listen. Then very slowly and carefully, he limped away into the trees. I felt helpless and terrified. We have predators here, and an injured dear would be an easy meal.
Time passed, and I continued to worry about his well-being. This weekend I checked all of my field cameras, and there were pictures of “My Baby Boy.” I was thrilled. Since these are still photos and not videos, I can’t tell if he’s limping, but he looked good! I am so grateful.
He is growing up, and I don’t know at what age a young male deer reaches sexual maturity. His injury occurred during the time of the Rut. So I think he challenged another male and was injured. Looking through the pictures I had from November 23rd, I see one photo where it appears that he might have an injury on his neck and shoulder, which would validate the possibility of some combat.
I am so grateful he seems to be recovering and I will keep you updated on his progress!
