Another badly worded post on my part.  Sorry.
The call is an alarm call.  It is given to other deer in the area to
warn that an intruder is present once the caller is just out of sight
of that intruder.  There usually is not a response by others to this
call and the result is usually not seeing another deer for the next
hour.  The deer you recorded sounds like a fairly small deer, for sure
under 150lb.
