Be darned if I've seen anything with horns but yeah, there's deer up here in Benton county. I see the mommas and babies everywhere, even right in the middle of town but where's daddy? I don't know!

Thats not a good sign. You all ever hear about crooked river ranch and that big case of deer hair loss? Pretty messed up.

You know I've only seen one doe with hairloss near here and it was across the river in Linn County. I was hoping the disease was on it's way out but I guess not. Bummer.

I see a lot here in Marion county and in Linn county. The strange part is the ones I usually see with it are around towns. Scio, Stayton,Sublimity etc. The more I get in the woods I don't see it much. The doe I saw on Sunday was a surprise because of where it was

Its been several years now so I hope that I m remembering everything right. Down at the Crooked River Ranch they a whole lot of deer and most of them got infected with that deer hair loss and most of them had died from it.

Ok I was a little off its wasnt deer hair loss it was AHD.
In 2002, ODFW and the Oregon State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory confirmed the presence of AHD in a viral disease outbreak in Central Oregon (Deschutes, Jefferson, and Wasco counties). Between May 9 and August 1, 2002, an estimated 400 + deer have died from the virus in the Crooked River Ranch area and near Sisters, Oregon.
Infected deer can have clinical signs common to other diseases such as bluetongue or pneumonia. Chronic symptoms include ulcers and abscesses in the mouth and throat. Acute symptoms include rapid or open mouth breathing, foaming or drooling at the mouth, diarrhea (possibly bloody), weakness, and copius amounts of fluid in the body cavity. Death can occur within 3 — 5 days from the time the deer was exposed to the virus.
