See if you see what I'm seeing...updated the second pic after the deer passed by...no sticks. So I think its on the deer.

Possibly lacking a tail or is it the light color on the rear half of the animal that may just be light reflection we're looking at?

highlighted what I see as out of place on the deer.

They might be reflections from sticks on the ground.

I think its probably sticks coming off that log on the ground..

I saw those as I was trying to see anything abnormal and think they're sticks just like the others say.

Wilcam47

well thats what I thought too but the next pic shows nothing there.Some other folks on a different forum say skin tags? Or tumors? I dunno...since Ive never seen them there on a deer before.

I am inclined to think what ever they are is actually on the deer.. Perhaps it was something it brushed up against and it stuck on her??

After now seeing the picture that was added after the deer left and wasn't blocking the background, I guess they are something on the belly of the deer itself.

At first glance I thought teets, maybe she's just got weird ones idk

I found this on md dnr FAQ on whitetails though

What causes are the warty appearing skin growths found on some white- tailed deer?
Hairless tumors found on the skin of deer are called cutaneous fibromas. Wildlife veterinarians believe that biting insects spread the virus that causes these skin tumors. Usually the "warty looking" tumors are temporary and do not cause problems for the deer. In rare occasions, the tumors may be large enough that sight, breathing or walking may be impaired. The tumors and virus are not contagious to domestic animals or humans. Only harvested deer with extremely large tumors and secondary infections should not be eaten.
