Oh deer...Nope...but I believe it was a close relative.![]()
If you don't like snakes, keep on scrolling! Also, spoiler alert, the deer dies. This is a fascinating post, but NOT A FUN ONE!
The deer is very unhealthy looking, perhaps from this.
Can you imagine being perfectly healthy and happy one day and near death only a few days later, all the cause of a viral infection induced by the bite of a tiny flying insect? Either blue tongue or epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD), labeled “antigentically different” by scientists, is grueling demises for whitetails. Symptoms of these similar diseases appear within a week of being bitten — usually in the moist areas of the inner nose or eyelids — by a virus-carrying midge (miniature biting fly). Loss of appetite and weight, weakness, escalated pulse and respiration rates, and fever and hemorrhaging forces the infected animal to water. A swollen tongue, blue in color due to insufficient blood oxygen, will not allow swallowing in the case of blue tongue. Often an infected deer beds down in water to reduce body temperature and pass into a shock-like state, dying within a day or two after the initial symptoms appear.
