Jimmer Negamanee Report post Posted September 26, 2015 I've never seen that before. The bite/sting/injury hypothesis could be possible. That could cause tissue damage. It could also include a secondary infection after the bite/sting/injury which could cause inflammation. Here's a link to 'Bullwinkle syndrome' which is bacterial according to the article. But your buck's swelling is much less severe. https://www.qdma.com/articles/the-mysterious-bullwinkle-deer If you've watched it for a couple months and it seemed to stay the same, I'd discount the Bullwinkle thing and stick with the bite/sting/injury hypothesis. We're just spit ballin' around the campfire here. If you find a more definitive explanation, let us know. Thanks for posting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
