- Support Are these ticks on the snout? BTW, I'm wondering if a less centred crop would result better. --Basotxerri (talk) 10:52, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
- warts I think. The eyes are positioned as per rule of thirds. Charles (talk) 16:20, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

- Support with a little reluctance. The picture is a little blurry despite the very short exposure time, probably due to the zoom lens. But you can still see that the poor beast has a lot of ticks around its nose. --Prozentzwanzig (talk) 11:34, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

- Support Is this animal seriously ill due to ticks or is it completely normal? --The Photographer 23:57, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
- Completely healthy. These are likely common warts - definitely not ticks - and will probably fall off as the animal matures. Charles (talk) 11:35, 30 October 2017 (UTC)
- When I was a child, I used to spend my free time removing the ticks of goats, dogs, and various animals that were in the yard of my house. Some ticks that were too big or too attached to the skin exploded and it was common for the animal to end up bathed in blood. The surface of the tick has a particular greyish gray color, and they can remain alive for a long time hidden until a new animal comes close. Some ticks grow like clusters of fruit in numbers of hundreds impossible to kill. In this case I would have sworn that they were ticks because of their appearance, thanks for the clarification. --The Photographer 18:59, 30 October 2017 (UTC)
