Possibly but as you turn with a tailgate down, the corner of the gate moves closer the center of the 5th wheel. The damage seems a bit far outboard for a tailgate. Could have been dually fenders on a very tight u-turn.
Or... someone simply ran into it with something else.

Looks like tree bark residue in the dent. Possible hit a stump?

Good observation, perhaps it was a tree stump.

Deer damage was going to be my guess too. I've never hit one with our many campers but I have nailed 14 deer while driving to and from work these many years. They seem to like me! Lol!

No deer where I live, but we do have moose. Hit one of them and your rig is totaled. If you hit one with a small car chances are you won't survive.

I'm sure the gun tube and the turret attract a lot of attention going down the road.
