Buck in NY that has tangled his antlers up in a Volley Ball Net
I came across this photo of a buck that appears to have lost a battled with a volley ball net in Ridgfield NY.
a buck that has been a visitor in her yard in nearby Brewster, N.Y. for about two weeks. Suddenly, one day he appeared with netting tangled in his antlers, which is worrying Ms. Hovey who has been in touch with wildlife officials about capturing the buck and removing the head-gear. According to Tom Belote, who leads the Deer Committee in Ridgefield, “The problem is that the bucks like this one will soon go into competition with other bucks — going rack-to-rack. The buck challenging this one could easily become entangled in the same netting, leaving the two deer locked together with both of them dying.
Well I may have another idea what maybe happening here given the increased interest in antler restrictions when it comes to hunting maybe this is the evolution process at its finest. I suspect this maybe the latest in deer camo making it difficult if not impossible for a hunter to be able to count how many points this buck has thus making him unkillable. This buck may have just found a way to outsmart the hunters.
