Disturbing deer injury caught on trail cam. Graphic.

I been in a combine doing corn and had to pull up and stop for a deer standing in a row eating corn summer of 1980 . I,ve also seen deer and rabbits almost hit by hay thressher and rakes , laying right down in alfalfa
 
I gave a porcupine a haircut with the combine this year. I was turning on the end of the pass when I saw him waddling away. He was uninjured but missing most of his quills.
 
While I agree, the government, in Ontario at least, does not. Their opinion is that nature will take its course and that we should let that happen.

Is me doing the right thing for that deer worth a big fine, losing my rifle, and a couple years of hunting prohibition?

Well, if you are harvesting it without a license, then yes you can get caught up in a mess. Pulling the trigger to quickly dispatch it and put it out of its misery when you in the bush and out of sight is another story.
 
As long as it doesn't get too infected, which will be tough, he will be fine. It looks brutal, but he is mainly just missing some hide. Ignore the wound and he is still a normal deer. He's alert, tasting the air, doing the relaxed tail wag, and moving normally.

As someone else mentioned, it's a wild animal and not some sissy human...

Laying down in the alfalfa... That's where the fawn my boss ran over with a mower was hiding...

Someone had the trail cam in the right place at the right time to catch that footage.
Surprised the Sasquatch hasnt popped into view on any of these cams.

I noticed much the same thing. It isn't bolting after having been 'clipped'. And where is all of the blood? Surely it would have made a mess if it had been run through a combine.

Slightly different, I was wondering if it might have been an infection/infestation? Fleshing eating maggots or bacteria come to mind. Seen it on smaller animals and they are full of holes yet seem fine.
