TRUE OR FALSE

I was shed hunting in Rhode Island in the month of March, when a buck and bedded doe jumped up in front of us looked at us at 50 yards away. The deer was a very good 8 pointer. He proceded to mount the doe and tried humping her before she ran a few seconds later. Is the tale- true or false[?]

    false. It could be true; however, I'd be more likely to believe it was a pimp mounting a stump.

    I'll say true for these reasons:
    Nobody else has said it yet. [;)]
    Plus it's strange enough that it actually happened, how would Buckey think that up out of nowhere.

    Gonna have to say false. Way too late for mating activity to be going on, but then again I have seen some weird deer pics before. Like the buck on top of a buck on top of a doe...lol...deer can be quite dumb sometimes

    This story is 100% true. I coulden't believe my eyes not only was I amazed that this buck still had his rack, but then tried to mount the doe. my brother was standing there with me. We just looked at each other like did you just see the same thing I saw. by the time I got out my digital camera they were gone. If someone told me this story and I didden't see it I would tell them they were nuts. But it is the truth.[:0]

    Just maybe, this female deer had already avoided all the other male deer, and he happened to come across and found that ah ha! yet another, I don't have to be celibate till next year yet! I'm not sure how long they are in heat per say, but, do they really only go into heat at specific times of the year, or if just like dogs, cattle, or sheep, whenever the cycle comes around? I have seen little Bambi's running around all times of the year, but really hard to see them out from being hidden by the mother in the brush.

    If you don't need it, find someone who needs it more than you.
