Buck?
« on: July 09, 2009, 08:47:27 AM »
Hey guys my trail cam took this picture of a deer on the same trail and near where I found a 4 point blacktail shed back in Feb.  Is this a buck or a doe?  I think its a buck due to the white throat patch?  Any ideas.

Looks like a doe to me-bt bucks usually have a meaner lookin face with a black brow, but who knows-could be a young one....

I agree, I don't see the antler bases in any of the pics.

Posibly a doe, don't see the marks from where the horns were.

I vote doe.  Do you have any other photos of the tarsal glands?  That would tell you for sure because late winter they are still large, dark, and quite visible in photos.

I vote doe.  Look at the second picture.  See how rounded the forehead is.  A buck will have a flat forehead.

I think it's a doe.  Don't see any bases.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
