Last year in early bow season there was one with spots on it's hindquarters and I let it walk by every day for almost 2 weeks. When the lightbulb came on saying "Hey, that would look good tanned as a throw on one of the couches!" it's spots were gone.
Ain't making that same decision this year!
I know the local farmer has depredation tags, and I'm guessing that Mom is no longer around since I haven't seen her at all. If I'm in the tractor, they run away, but stop 100' away at the most.
