Thread: how far do deer run

We checked our cameras last weekend and seen something interesting. Two sambar deer ran through the clearing and off into the bush, minutes later 3 dogs were following their trail, it didn't end there as about 30 minutes later the big 14 pointer we have been after strolls through the clearing heading the same way the dogs and sambar went and he actually crossed the dogs path. I have always been lead to believe if deer smell dogs they clear out of the area quick smart. Didn't appear to worry this old boy in the time we seen him on the camera.
