Might be, but if an area becomes over browsed and the food source disappears the doe's tend to skip their heat cycle. Natures way I guess.

Post by: bobcat on November 04, 2011, 08:10:24 PM: The buck I killed on October 30th had shavings in the bases of its antlers from the tree it had just been rubbing. This is Rochester area. Surprised it would be that much different in Morton.
