The big growth on the chest of this deer is likely a hydrocyst — a “fluid-filled cyst that occurs in the subcutaneous space usually in the brisket area of a deer.”
A hydrocyst develops in response to a traumatic injury — "usually on the ventral aspect of the body, with a resultant accumulation and encapsulation of fluid."
