Based on his reaction to me, I think he may have never seen a human in his little area. He almost had a "WTF is that thing up there on the ridge?!" reaction to me, as opposed to bolting like most mature muleys do. 500 acres of publicly accessible BLM that was surrounded by literally thousands of acres that was either landlocked BLM or owned by one of two families.
I figured he was old just based on his body size and his hooves. They looked like my toes, they were so beat up. I'll post pics once I start processing him. Young deer don't look like that.
