No that is not correct. The Lumpy Jaw  does not affect the meat in any way from everything I have read. Like I said, I shot and ate one with Lumpy Jaw about 17-20yrs ago and I'm still kicking!

Don'tlook like lumpy jaw, moreso a wart. I have shot quite a few over the years with warts some so bad you could not really tell their head from the wart. I have eaten all of them with no ill effects. Shawn

This deer as you say has been alive three years.  I think she's fine.

I would shoot and eat! I'd try for the rabbit also.

I would go for the rabbit but not the doe. We can't shoot does here. I think she would be fine to eat. Ate coyotes that looked worse. JK on the coyotes.

I answered "yes" before I saw the picture.  After viewing the picture, my answer remains the same!

I would shoot and when butchering her I would pay close attention to the meat. If it looks fine I'd have no problem.

that's a tumor-like growth, not lumpy jaw. The meat is fine.

A fibroma is like a wart.  That's what it is and the deer's completely safe to eat.

I've seen it before, and people in the know say fibroma also. No effect on the meat, other than psychological
