On your knees! (Question)

Post by MUP »

This doe has literally taken my mineral site under siege. She absolutely will not let any other deer near it! I had nearly 7K pics of her, and a few of her fighting other deer off and defending her Trophy Rock! Any biologic references to the whys and how's this is going on? I've not seen this type behavior before. Here's some pics of her fighting off another doe.

And her with her head stuck up under the stump even. She literally has lived there for days on end.

I can't give you a reason other than there is a pecking order and she seems to be at the top. Simplest solution would be to kill her on opening day......maybe the others will stop by to thank you later!

Ha that's cool.
I see you've got you a covert in the mix now. They are nice!
