    Any ideas what’s up with these 2 deer? It doesn’t look like cwd, this is in the Crow wing cwd zone. But no deer have been found with cwd. Any ideas? Deer appears healthy, just different colors…

    That’s what I thought. Looks completely healthy. Had a worried family member thinking it was something worse. It matches other pics I have from this time of year in past years.

    Shot in the dark here, but could they just be changing their coats?

    I am no expert but my chocolate lab looks similar this time of year. Going from a light brown to a dark brown come winter.
