Awesome. Just found out that they drop their antlers every winter. I always thought only the teenager bucks have small antlers and the older bucks would have the large ones from years and years of growing. I guess Bambi didnt tell the whole story.

Its either a farm or a high fence so id say hes feeding them the right nutrients and gene breeding Edit- around here all deer vary in their antlers a old deer can have small 6 point rack and a young buck habve a 24" 10 point rack all in the genes id say
@Denni552 жыл бұрын
It's true. Although antlers do shed every winter, they grow back bigger the next year. So the older bucks do have bigger antlers. This is why hunters mostly shoot older bucks, it's to give the next generation a greater chance of survival and spreading their genes, because the teenage bucks don't stand a chance against the giant antlers of the older ones.

So, once the antlers start protruding, they can keep growing on the tips, kind of like a plant? That's how the antlers branch off? It's pretty incredible that such a hard material can keep changing. It's kind of like if your nail kept branching out at the tip after it grew past your finger.

@bubbythedeer58733 жыл бұрын
Nope, they don’t feel a thing! If the velvet were to be disturbed while there is still blood flow, then yes it can hurt. But once the antlers stop growing, there is no longer blood flow; therefore, no feeling.
@Halloween1112 жыл бұрын
Lots of times you will find chunks of it stuck to trees or even phone poles as they rub the velvet off. If you have a fair population in a smallish area. Once the calcification completes and the blood flow to the velvet stops, It's basically dead tissue. No pain. Antlers are kind of hard to find because they are not usually dropped in the same place and other critters like mice, Opossums, etc eat them for the calcium.

how can you tell if a buck is going to have big antlers this time of the year I've got trail cameras out. I have several bucks on camera but one has a really big body and his antlers obviously arnt formerd yet but his bases look thick compared to others
@jake-hofer6 жыл бұрын
Good question. It's hard to tell for sure, but the larger the bases the more potential it has to grow into a big buck. Some bucks grow slower and later in the year, while some grow very quickly in the late June. When looking at pictures in mid summer, the more 'bulb' on the end of the tines the more it has to grow. Once they thin out, they will slow down in growing. Hope this helps, thanks for watching the video!

Deer in the wild rarely have antlers that size.

(oops, sorry) anyway, all this stuff that is perfectly natural and normal in animals is regarded as some kind of pathology that must be treated with pharmaceuticals in human beings!!!
