Axis Deer and Freezing Weather

[Hills of Texas]

If they get back in the brush they should be ok. Blackbuck on the other hand have a habit of staying in the open and freezing.

The blackbuck are gonna get hit hard with this one. Single digits is gonna get a ton of them. The axis should be fine for the most part. I just put out a bunch of extra feed.

Last time it snowed in Harper a good friend lost 2 adult females and 10 young axis. I predict several more this time.

We will lose some I'm sure. They have been laid up somewhere the last couple days because I haven't seen hardly anything moving or coming out to feed.

They are eating like crazy. I think they sense what’s coming.

Cottonseed would go a long way, but it’s mostly sold out and was super pricey this year.

Wish it would kill every invasive species

Yep. This afternoon was the first time I’ve seen them on my camera in a while. Lots of activity.

Wow that’s horrible to lose so many animals. I didn’t realize axis were temperature sensitive like some of the antelope species.
