I have seen other pics online of weird unicorn type spikes on hermaphrodites, messed up genes can = messed up hormones = weird horn growth or lack of growth

I've seen a few here and there, not as abnormal as you'd think.


Doe's don't rub the velvet off, easy way to spot them.

So the real question is can I shoot it? If have a doe tag would I be able to take it from the herd? And would photos like this be enough to explain to the warden I was harvesting a doe to rid her mutated genes rather than them thinking I poached a spike?

I think you can shoot it with either tag if spike's are legal there

Stag bucks often don't lose their velvet. They are more common than does with antlers.

If you want to find out, let us know what you get told.  I wouldn't take the risk personally.  Especially when the "mutation" is most-likely a dead end road and she's sterile.

Can't get "Doe Tags", Can get "Antlerless Tags"

Good point
Title: Re: can you spot the wth?
Post by: stigalla on November 05, 2014, 05:33:34 PM
From the regs.

Antlerless: Deer, elk, or moose without antlers; doe and fawn deer and cow and calf elk and moose are considered antlerless.

I understand that it says an deer, elk, or moose without antlers.. But it ALSO says doe are considered antlerless. So is this a contradiction or is a doe with antlers actually considered antlerless?

I called wdfw this morning and was um able to speak to an officer and the lil lady behind the desk apparently "doesn't need to know regs" to answer a phone. So she took down my info and someone with some knowledge will call me tomorrow.

Antlerless means antlerless. If a deer has antlers it is not antlerless, and therefore not legal to shoot as an antlerless. IMHO

Spoke with fish and wildlife and a doe is antlerless as stated in the regs.. My window for taking a doe this year is gone but he said if I follow her and and keep things documented he could potentially oversee the harvest next year. He is also going to so some research with a biologist to see if the genes could be passed on to the fawns she had last spring.

It's a three consonants solution for the "Betterment of the breed" SSS and throw the hindparts from the neck back into the freezer as " Beef sticks" sans tag. Range management.

Nope 4x4 or antlerless

Then no, it obviously has antlers but less than 4pt. 

I wouldn't worry about passed on genes, probably would not be a breeder anyways with the mixed up hormones and all.

No u cant shoot it cuz it dont say doe it says antlerless and any buck or 3 point in the description of what you are able to shoot and it also gives the definition of any buck in the regulation pamphlet. If u could shoot it useing a doe tag then one could argue that u could shoot a calf bull...lol just joaking idk?

It does seem to be cross identifying, but with nursing fawns it is pretty hard to it to defy genetics....

And i made a call and Obama said it can use any bathroom it chooses to.
