    Maybe I'm prejudiced because mule deer sleep under my front porch and I've gotten to see several generations of fawns growing up, but I don't think mule deer are boring at all.

      I live in Western Oregon where we have the black tails, "grey ghost", they are VERY SMART and very hard to kill, EXCEPT at night, AND during the rut.
      An hour east of my house the mule deer rome. They are bigger, bigger racks, BETTER MEAT. They (typically) are NOT NEARLY as "Willey" as the black tail. - for that, a little more boring.

      I live in the Sierra Nevadas, and a few years ago I got to watch a bunch of young bucks sparring behind my house. Mostly just practicing locking antlers but once in a while one would try charging another. One of them had only four small prongs and he tried charging a full grown buck that was with them (he learned to stop doing that pretty quick). Even my dog watched them with me.

    I saw mule deer for the first time a few weeks ago when I visited New Mexico! It’s true their ears are quite big, they look kinda dorky lol. Also, I was shocked at how chill they are around people! White-tailed deer tend to be a bit skittish from what I’ve seen, but mule deer were just chilling by buildings as people were walking by pretty close to them. I obviously kept a respectable distance and didn’t try to get close, but it was fascinating to see how chill they were compared to white-tailed deer.

    • @kellybraun7048
      @kellybraun7048 3 месяца назад

      We have a herd of whitetail deer that like to bed down at the edge of the woods that's at the back of my mom's yard. As long as we're not staring at them or using power tools, they're chill. They get more nervous about my cat (on leash) than about me. 😂 They sometimes leave their fawns up against the house. I've heard stories of them being super chill if you put out salt licks or corn for them.

    When I was ten years old, our family was driving through Malade, Idaho just before dawn when a large heard of mule deer came bounding across the interstate. The alpha male stopped dead in his tracks directly in front of our van while we were traveling at nearly 70 MPH. Dad had no time to stop, hit the animal head on. Thing was the size of a horse, nearly flipping the van as we went over him. The buck was killed on impact, and so was the van (the engine was literally dismounted from the chassis and the entire front end was destroyed). The several females who'd been following at full speed behind the buck actually slammed into the side of the van, causing extensive body damage down the length of the vehicle. We were stranded on the side of the road until a trucker was able to radio the highway patrol (this was more than 30 years ago). The patrolman took measurements of the buck's body and rack, later confirming that it was in fact the largest mule deer on record in that county. The accident left my parents in a financial ruin that took years to recover from afterwards, and pretty much sealed my opinion of mule deer and the entire state of Idaho for the rest of my life.

    I honestly had no idea Mule deer were even a thing. I don't think this is boring. Deer seem "normal" as far as animals go but i find them pretty interesting. There is some interesting convergent evolution with several species that look similar and they are essential parts of our ecosystems. Their behavior is also pretty interesting.

Tourists gathered asking what I was looking at then took turns with the binoculars which I practically had to wrestle away from the last man as my ride was leaving. Not boring at all as many people don't know about "Mule Deer" and argued even after seeing their extra long ears.

    I’m from Puerto Rico and one of my best friends from college is from Missouri and I visited recently (was quite an experience we definitely grew up very differently) but he took me to bass pro shop nearby and it was huge and they boasted the largest Mule Deer museum in the world and had some huge antler and taxidermy examples of them apparently they’re the biggest ones deers can have in North America (deer antler size)
    That being said don’t think it’s a boring video because deer are common in the us (I got a similar sense from my friend irl in the musuem) but obviously uncommon many other places so why wouldn’t people from them think it’s interesting to learn about them like any other animal until that day i didn’t even know there were different species of deer in the us. What’s common to you might be an experience to learn for someone else.

    With that amazing hair, this can't be boring. 😍
    I do wonder what Danielle's drawings are like when she's allowed to add her own flair for funsies. Rainbow bunnies and neon dolphins? 🤩

    The only time I seen Deer is at a Temple in Nara and Miyajima in Japan. They are smaller Sika Deer. They learned not to fear humans because they get fed by Tourists. They are cute but they stink and they make a lot of poop. They seem docile but can become aggressive when they want food. They can come in a small swarm when they are offered food.

    I liked this video!
    Especially because all I've got is mule deer.

    I always see these on my walks when I go up to more hilly areas, they always just stare when they notice me and then go back to doing deer stuff. :p
