Bacteria can enter a crack or wound in the animal's foot, be it in the hoof bone or the space between the hooves, and start to multiply, creating an infection. This infection can cause the hoof to "rot" if not treated with antibiotics and penicillin as soon as possible.
All sorts of things, from excess moisture causing softening of the hoof, corns in the hoof, a foreign object getting into the hoof, foot rot, founder from a grain-based diet, injury, etc. Get your veterinarian to get a proper diagnosis to find why your cow's lameness.
Bacterial infection of the hoof, which primarily occurs in the frog of the hoof, not the actual hoof.
Foundering in cows, also known as laminitis, is a condition where there is inflammation of the sensitive laminae in the hoof. It commonly causes lameness and severe pain in cows, affecting their ability to walk and stand. It can be triggered by factors such as diet changes, obesity, or excessive grain consumption.

It's not likely. Hoof rot is borne more from a wound in the foot caused by crop stubble, gravel, old nails, scrap iron, or frozen mud that makes it open to bacterial infection. However, the most common culprit is Fusobacterium necrophorum, which can be a normal inhabitant of the digestive tract. Thus I do not think that deer have such a bacteria in their stomach, nor live in an area where there is much loose soil so that it can affect cattle.
Yes this is also known as footrot, caused by Dichelobacter nodosus
