I’m fascinated by the suggestion that an antlered doe might hold its antlers into winter. Because that’s what reindeer do (that classic fun fact that all of Santa’s reindeer are female because only females have antlers on Christmas). Even when antlers are a fluke, does might hold them longer. Definitely something to look into.
Well if it was realistic yeah but hey he's a fictional man who has magical powers and never dies. His deer can be male, female, both . My canon they're a mix of males and females. It's a story. Not a documentary.
Sooo, out of curiosity, could reindeer and white tail deer cross? I mean we have at least 1 reindeer farm around here, so if some were to get loose somewhere in a tornado or hurricane and not found, would they be able to adopt into a local herd? I know my uncles had beefalo because a bull wound up breeding the Buffalo they had bought as a calf and had grown up with her, and then you have burros which I think are donkeys crossed with horses.....
I’d never realized just how different the body characteristics between buck and doe were until I saw this gal and just kinda sat here confused for a bit! I agree, that looks like a doe with antlers! Super cool!
Bucks really do change during mating season.They get super bulky! But I'm sure even in off season, an expert can point out a lot of differences that I don't see. It's super interesting to hear this guy break all the stranger aspects down for us :)
@ I had genuinely always just went antlers=buck, but the body difference is incredible. It’s not just the bulk, it’s the way they move. I wasn’t even conscious of the differences until he showed this video.
I saw a buck up close last fall, because he was very close. His neck had to be a foot in diameter. He was a 9 pointer, and had a healed broken foreleg, because the forearm part was thick and looked like a club.
I mean it’s pretty obvious😂 look up a short comparing videos and you’ll be able to tell even in the young ones which ones a buck or doe based off the body.
@ I spend most of my time outdoors….typically when I want to look at deer I don’t look up videos. Only saw this one because I was doomscrolling youtube
It's a doe with antlers. That's why the regulations read antlered or antlerless. I have a friend that shot an antlered doe. He took it into the fish and game, and that is what they told him.
@@tiga1079 this comment is not enough for you to be railing this hard into it, there’s no context here.

A lot of people think intersex only happens in humans but it can happen in all animals. I work in a medical research lab with lab mice and we've had a few times were mice with nipples (indicating that they are female) have gotten other females pregnant. Nature is wild.
Unfortunately many people live in an imaginary world with clear cut rules that simply don’t translate to reality. No amount of scientific evidence can fix willful ignorance
Humans thinking that nature would ever fit into the narrow boxes we invented always struck me as incredibly narcissistic. Life has been evolving for billions of years before us and will be here for millions of years after us, yet we expect the world to fall into our definitions as if we’re some higher, separate creature and not just a primate that started walking upright and developed anxiety
A lot of people don’t think intersex happens at all or is as common as it actually is (not that it could be considered common, but it’s certainly not rare or bizarre) Nature just isn’t built for fitting the boxes we’ve created
@ being intersex is approximately as common as having red hair or being ambidextrous, so while not super common it’s certainly not as rare as people think. If you’ve met a ginger, chances are you’ve also met an intersex person and didn’t know it
Few years back my brother shot a velvet buck. From what the taxidermist said, was that this usually happens in males that get neutered. Usually they try to jump a fence and get the bits caught on a post or some wire. Then they'll steadily start acting like does. They also said the antlers just don't drop since they never fully harden without enough testosterone.
This is actually hilarious ! 😂😂 but in reality will we ever truly know what damage (if any) atrazine is doing to us? It’s an endocrine disrupter banned in other countries but still in use here 🤷♂️ seems odd
I knew that lions developed manes sometimes because of higher testosterone but antrlers are essentially bone! I don’t know if it’s as simple as a hormone imbalance or if it’s something more significant. Now I need to see a hen with spurs
I believe there are hens that take up the role and appearance of a rooster if there isn't one around but I'm not sure they develop spurs. They do begin to look like a rooster in the face though and some people claim they get those big male tail feather.
Well come on over, one of my hens has huge spurs. She does not have the saddle feathers of a rooster or anything else. Just the spurs and she crows. We do have a rooster, she's his backup. She lays eggs normally btw.
Buck with a chromosomal issue. I forgot what it’s called. We have a giant 20 inch velvet buck around where i hunt but he’s rarely seen because they don’t rut. Super skinny neck but giant body. Never seen him with another deer. Always on camera and only once in daylight. He’s a ghost.
Wow, yes that strickingky a doe. Face and body characteristics are unreal! Ive raken a beareded hen trukey before in caswell county NC years ago. She had a 8 3/4" beard. Orher than the beard, the body was 100% hen!
I ponder if this is how reindeer cows got their antlers, just "accidentally" growing them and then finding out in a darwinian way that actually antlers are pretty good tools to protect your babies with LOL
More likely they all had antlers and horns originally and females mostly lost them, since ruminants like cattle, goats, bison, buffalo, yak, etc and some deer and antelope both males and females have horns and antlers just female's are smaller. The ones where females don't are much fewer, so those species probably just lost theirs over time.
@@TheLakeMorgan he and she are indicators to determine men from women. and since the discussion is directly about her being a male or female pointing out that it's an error to be calling her a boy while determining she is a girl is not odd. the pronouns matter to us, the humans having the discussion, because we can use language and it's the literal subject we are talking about.
Reindeer bucks have antlers in the mating season however Reindeer doe grow their antlers when the fauns are born. This is an evitionary adaptation for scare food resource where the mother deer can defend the fauns access to food. This may be a dormant adaptation that is re-emerging if there is a need within that deer population?

They are hermaphrodite deer. That’s no joke. I have one on camera years back. It’s female but with horns they hold onto like year round or something like that. Had velvet horns in April (Chatom, AL).
Believe it or not; 2 years ago I saw a full antlered buck (no velvet) a week before spring gobbler season in April. I’m guessing it never shed from the previous season. The first & only time I’ve seen it.
Antlered doe or a buck with some damage to its goods. Our neighbor was a rehabber and she had several “pet” deer surrendered that had been castrated. They were in full time velvet and some of their antlers looked like a jumbled mass
Down here in Texas we call them Cactus bucks, most of the time it’s when a buck gets castrated they’ll never lose their hours always be in velvet and pretty much lose all testosterone
I've also heard that of a buck injurs it's been bag this can happen to something to do with testosterone or hormones that have to do with getting hard antlers an when the velvet breaks
Most animals can be both depending on how they develop. I've heard of humans (and it's rare) but having both genders for start, women can grow beards depending on hormones, some men develop breasts, and homosexuality traits in humans as well
Caribou and Reindeer Does often have antlers and they tend to keep them until spring while males already drop them by the end of December. It's not common but it's not hard to imagine how antlered Does of other species are possible.
Yes, and it's probably due to it being likely all species had antlers and horns originally and females mostly lost them, since ruminants like cattle, goats, bison, buffalo, yak, etc and some deer and antelope both males and females have horns and antlers just female's are smaller. The ones where females don't are much fewer, so those species probably just lost theirs over time.
It's actually a really common thing to see antlered does in the Ozarks. Deer tags tend to say antlered instead of buck because it's such a problem. I don't know what it's like elsewhere.
We've got one here, we left the ozarks but are still in the ozark mountains on the east side of the state now. Far less meth over here but still does with antlers.
Another strange thing about the buck is the back glands on his hind legs are not black from the muscle glands. And the neck never looks swollen like a bucking rut.
It's most likely a hermaphrodite. I work at a taxadermy shop and hermaphrodites or bucks with testicular problems are much more common then antlered does. Doe's with antlers is either due to hormone imbalances, weird genetics, or being very old. Antlered doe's are most likely to be spikes or to have weird antlers like very very old bucks
First, GREAT footage, TY!! Second, mebbee "cactus buck"??? From failure of testicules to fully develop?? Sorta Nature's "banding"??? Hope yall "let it walk" for a few years, and get follow-up footage. That would be very interesting, well worth watching. TY!
Absolutely! If you base it on a species of deer where females already tend to have antlers, like reindeer, then it wouldn’t cause head turns like this, but if you base it on a white tail deer where females tend not to have antlers, then that centaur would likely be intersex.
As long as you have an explaination for it, it's fair game. And since it's a centaur, you can simply make it a species that has this trait for both genders. :) Mutations or hormonal inbalances can also be an explaination if you want that. Just make it make sense and give it a reason and then you're good. I personally would go for a self-made species. That way you have more colour options and can mix and match antler shapes as well. That's always my favourite part about designing a character. :)
Definitely walks and looks like an antlered doe. Things are all off this year. I had a deer walk up to me close to Thanksgiving and I was convinced it was a giant 200 plus pound doe I went ahead and harvested it to find out for whatever reason he had lost his horns way way early.
All mutations/chromosomal anomalies run from A-Z in the animal kingdom. Humans, dolphins, elephants, birds, and fish can, and do have weird stuff going on. Vitiligo, uneven pigmentation, is seen in cats, dogs, giraffes, humans. All life is connected, if not for our similar traits, our different ones.
Had a deer come into my property a few times this summer looked exactly like that one. Tight high antlers at least 8 points with a small body, don't usually see bucks like that around here. I thought it was odd anyway.
Love how nature shows how perceived gender isn’t just black and white… almost like there are no rules and humans just crave comfort in the structure we’ve been taught.
Granted deer probably don’t have the same gender identities we have. (In like a cultural gender roles type sense. Human culture is super complicated and views on gender vary wildly by culture. The only reason current générer roles are like this in most of the world is because of colonialism. I wish I could know if animals have any form of gender identity and how that varies species to species. It would be super interesting to learn about.) Intersex deer are still super cool (my favorite forms of intersex animals though are sexually dimorphic birds! They look so cool.)
as soon as I saw the body I was immediately reminded of a doe, I didn’t know does could grow antlers, just read its extremely rare, this was really cool to learn about!
My aunt shot a doe with horns years ago she went to gut it and it was missing the ballsack, she took it to the DNR and they let her keep it and said it happens sometimes but rare.
I have seen a 8pt buck with velvet in Late Jan.I have the picture ,it was in the back of truck the guy who harvested didn't know what he had till he loaded it it was missing it's gonads.Tgat explained the velvet antlers there are cases of bucks like this who lost their sack on a barbwire fence or fighting.
Intersex. Not trans. The deer didn't transition into anything. It was born like this, thus it is intersex. Please stop mixing the 2. They are not the same at all.
I hunted for bunch of years in my life...when i was younger and could walk.....i had no idea that a doe could possibly have antlers. Thanks for the video.
Have shot two does with antlers,both in Manitoba, several years apart and about 60 miles apart.Both were shot mid November and both were in velvet.First only had 6 inch antlers with very small second point When it fell one antler broke and was honeycombed inside like aero chocolate bar. Other had bigger rack,3x3 and had a fawn with it
I know someone who lives in the park mountain area and they were telling my family about how they shot a deer that was still in velvet and had no testes, same deer?

Antlered doe or a buck with some damage to its goods. Our neighbor was a rehabber and she had several “pet” deer surrendered that had been castrated. They were in full time velvet and some of their antlers looked like a jumbled mass
In Germany we call that bucks "Perückenbock" (Perücke=Wig)
Apparently people castrate reindeer stags so they don't lose their antlers in the winter?
That deer carries itself like a doe . The way it walks , its stances, its posture .
Down here in Texas we call them Cactus bucks, most of the time it’s when a buck gets castrated they’ll never lose their hours always be in velvet and pretty much lose all testosterone
thinking this is just an antlered doe and not a castrated buck
This deer hardened off, so not a castrated buck.
Oh! Kinda like maned lioness or hens that turn into roosters. Intersex animals are so fascinating
I've also heard that of a buck injurs it's been bag this can happen to something to do with testosterone or hormones that have to do with getting hard antlers an when the velvet breaks
Castrated bucks don't drop antlers or go from velvet to hard. so doe with antlers.
How are so many deer injuring their testicle? How does that even happen?
Possible to be both? For context, I own goats and i dont know anything about deer. But i know, sometimes goats can be both genders.
Most animals can be both depending on how they develop.

Absolutely! If you base it on a species of deer where females already tend to have antlers, like reindeer, then it wouldn’t cause head turns like this, but if you base it on a white tail deer where females tend not to have antlers, then that centaur would likely be intersex.

Definitely walks and looks like an antlered doe. Things are all off this year. I had a deer walk up to me close to Thanksgiving and I was convinced it was a giant 200 plus pound doe I went ahead and harvested it to find out for whatever reason he had lost his horns way way early.
"Be rude. Be weird. Stay alive."
Magnificent.
Intersex deer? Cool.
Regardless of the details, i think she's beautiful
This happens up north when hard winters literally freeze the nuts off bucks. That's when you get massive atypical racks.
She’s so beautiful!
Law would say doesn't matter, has antlers. At least in VA.
Same in New York, Antler tag and Antler-less tag
Same in PA
Same in every state it's classified as a antlered deer until it sheds then it's antlerless
Not the point of this video, it doesn't claim otherwise so I don't see the point of this comment?
Same here in FL too.. though the deer down here aren't nearly as big
That's frikin amazing!! I had no idea this could happen to a doe! Very neat, thank for the cool education 😊
All mutations/chromosomal anomalies run from A-Z in the animal kingdom. Humans, dolphins, elephants, birds, and fish can, and do have weird stuff going on. Vitiligo, uneven pigmentation, is seen in cats, dogs, giraffes, humans. All life is connected, if not for our similar traits, our different ones.
Well it is 2024…….. you know what I’m saying 😂
😂
😂😂 you are so getting canceled lol
Exactly what I was thinking. The animals mini the pattern of humans it seems like😂
That deer voted blue for sure
Even the animals are starting, it's in our water
Had a deer come into my property a few times this summer looked exactly like that one. Tight high antlers at least 8 points with a small body, don't usually see bucks like that around here. I thought it was odd anyway.
Love how nature shows how perceived gender isn’t just black and white… almost like there are no rules and humans just crave comfort in the structure we’ve been taught.
It's not that deep buddy
@ what I said wasn’t deep at all, it’s was just an observation stating a fact of life. Sorry you viewed it as deep ig? Idk man.
@@Cicada11011 it's a joke I've been saying that a lot here when people say things that take a few minutes to think of
Granted deer probably don’t have the same gender identities we have. (In like a cultural gender roles type sense. Human culture is super complicated and views on gender vary wildly by culture. The only reason current générer roles are like this in most of the world is because of colonialism. I wish I could know if animals have any form of gender identity and how that varies species to species. It would be super interesting to learn about.) Intersex deer are still super cool (my favorite forms of intersex animals though are sexually dimorphic birds! They look so cool.)
Fun Fact! There are quite a few antlered does in Ocala national forest!
We love a transmasc king
as soon as I saw the body I was immediately reminded of a doe, I didn’t know does could grow antlers, just read its extremely rare, this was really cool to learn about!
Does it have nuts? Easy observation to determine doe, buck. Humans could learn from this
😂😂😂😂 great point
'Humans could learn from this' 😂😂
😂😂😂
😂 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
She's beautiful 🥰
It's just a buck that identifies as a doe!
My aunt shot a doe with horns years ago she went to gut it and it was missing the ballsack, she took it to the DNR and they let her keep it and said it happens sometimes but rare.
I’m getting “IT’S MA’AM!” Vibes from that doe
I have seen a 8pt buck with velvet in Late Jan.I have the picture ,it was in the back of truck the guy who harvested didn't know what he had till he loaded it it was missing it's gonads.Tgat explained the velvet antlers there are cases of bucks like this who lost their sack on a barbwire fence or fighting.
So does can be bucks. Crazy how that’s a thing with humans too.
💀
Please, just leave us alone dude
I don't quite think that's how it works
@ I think it’s weird that you get worked up about what other people do that doesn’t have an effect on you.
Yeah, intersex works that way. That is not the same as trans.
Whoa that is a really cool buck? 😍
It probably identifies as a "duck". Front half buck back half doe.
You win
@@AlexFreehling 😂😂😂😂😂
That's freaking hilarious!
A huge doe with a very cool headpiece. Queen
Trans deer, thats rad. Nature is so fuckin cool y'all.
fr tho. I love deer sm
its so real
@LadyoftheDreamless14 erm that isnt the same actually 🤓
This is more intersex than trans.
Intersex. Not trans. The deer didn't transition into anything. It was born like this, thus it is intersex. Please stop mixing the 2. They are not the same at all.
Didn’t know that could happen! Fascinating
tHeRe ArE OnLy TwO gEnDeRs! iT's UnNaTuRaL!!! 😡😤😠
Meanwhile in nature:
Still a doe tho (female)
I hunted for bunch of years in my life...when i was younger and could walk.....i had no idea that a doe could possibly have antlers. Thanks for the video.
Even the deer changing genders
Yall are so obsessed with trans people… will you ever just let us be?
Just leave us alone. We just want to live bruh
You're all more obsessed with yourselves than anyone else is.
@@stratussol2475 for real
Have shot two does with antlers,both in Manitoba, several years apart and about 60 miles apart.Both were shot mid November and both were in velvet.First only had 6 inch antlers with very small second point When it fell one antler broke and was honeycombed inside like aero chocolate bar. Other had bigger rack,3x3 and had a fawn with it
Would it use a buck tag or for Maybe even both?
Doe with antlers….it’s so pretty!!!!
I heard that reindeers tend to have antlers for the does but that fall off after they birth a fawn. Think it's a thing for other deer species?
My neighbor shot a velvet doe. I had experience with her for two years. Antlers got bigger each year. 👍🏼
It's "Ma'am"!!!
That's literally me guys, that's me actually.
Never knew this was a thing and I have been hunting my whole life. Never to old to learn something knew 😊
Since the deer was seen acting as a leading member of the herd, I am pretty sure that's a doe.
I know someone who lives in the park mountain area and they were telling my family about how they shot a deer that was still in velvet and had no testes, same deer?
The deer are adapting and they're getting smart 🤣, definitely that Doe will be a legend among the deer.
What a fantastic creation ❤
Back in the mid '60s, one of Dad's coworkers harvested an antlered mule deer doe in northern Utah.
We’ve had a couple does with antlers over the years on our leases but never anything that size!
Fascinating, I had no idea that these guys existed. Makes sense though.
