Sick deer?

What is wrong with this doe? She shows up by herself pretty regular at a feeder always alone. I've got groups of healthy deer showing up on camera so I guess she is the only one. Somebody tell me what's up with her.

I hadn't thought about a snake bite. Very well could be it.

I pulled the card with this one on it today bw. I reckon Deer have it tough too sometimes.

Probably not the same cause as the sore jaw though. I think there's a fly that causes these sores but I didn't think they were this big. Kinda like a "wolf" on a squirrel I guess.
