So it is a real photo? Must be unusual to have so many mature bucks all together?
What's the species? Mule deer?
(I know I am hopeless on NA deer species!)
Yes--they are mule deer...
The first time I saw it -the photo was in a "Kings Outdoor World Callendar"...
Mule deer bucks will hang together in the summer --however as fall approaches and the rut enters..the testosterone increases..and they become MUCH less tolerant of one another..
In todays world..it would be very uncommon to see that quality of bucks together..I am guessing they just put together a group of really large bucks from the past and put them together in a photo...again, just guessing...
