Thanks Liam, another superb video I watched the Fallow Deer video and this one is just as good, have a wonderful weekend. PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
Thanks Graham. Well RUclips has these conditions that you must meet in order to run ads and one of the things that makes a video not suitable for ads is animals mating... So what you can see at 2:15 is actually two hinds. I think its a dominance thing, given they were scrapping before and after the act. Interestingly, male red deers without antlers do exist, they are called Hummels. And also, stags can grow that have single pronged antlers that are called a "Switch". Heres a picture of one of their skulls: www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/red-deer-stags-skull-switch-antlers-470860278 Im surprised it hasnt became more dominant as surely they would have a better chance of jabbing and thus defeating any rival stags.
Guys in Latvia, Lithuania and Poland, as well in Belarus, sometimes find cast antlers weighing around 6 kg..). So, 5 kg antler (shed) of red deer is not the top limit..). Stags, if not taken out during the hunting, can live up to 18 years as well...Greetings from Lithuania 🌳🌲🌲.

Thanks Amy! I had assumed something like that would be the case, as in quite a few animals that breed in harems. I was surprised that the ratio of females born varied based on the females body condition (and also based on the fathers genetics - but that was too complicated for this short video)
@@AShotOfWildlife you would think it would the opposite with more females the lower the body condition as males need much more resources to be successful. does the majority of a stags growth occur after its left its mother?
@@evilcow666 interesting point and question. I cant find any solid evidence but I would assume that their isnt much difference between growth rates in the first year. It usually takes a stag 4-5 years to reach a condition where they can successfully compete in the Rut and this is mainly down to size, weight and antler growth. As it takes them so long to reach this size, I would assume they grow at a similar rate in their first year. I will do some research into this though as that's quite intriguing!
@@evilcow666 I just had a quick look through some articles online and it seems to show that their weights at weaning on average can vary quite a lot. In some years the male calves are in excess of 10% heavier at weaning, but in others they are 10% lighter and there doesn't seem to be any significant difference over time. Unfortunately their weights don't take into account the body condition of their mothers but that would make for a very interesting study in the future!
I don't know if you going to read this comment or not. But maybe you will. The Red deer isn't only there in Russia but it's here in the state of Illinois. This is the reason I had to go to RUclips to see exactly what was being seen here. Thank you for your information that you put out for interesting people like me.
Hi Liam,can you please do a video about bulls. To enhance the effects, please wear a bright red shirt, & be armed with a cattle prodder. Then sneak up behind the bull & give it a full voltage. Looking forward to seeing you flying through the air very soon. Thanks
the claim that a weak hind should put a deer calf in order for it to emigrate with other deer, I am skeptical about. As far as I know it suitsroe deer and not red deer. A weak Hind will often put a Hind calf, for then she is sure to carry on her genes. A strong hind bets on putting astag calf because there is a high probability that one day it will be strong enough to carry the grayling and thereby get its genes spread as far as possible
Most red deer are always huge but have the body of a larger doe but in the rut due to testosterone levels they get really lumpy and muscly, almost like steroids
Brilliant Liam!!!!! Seriously couldn’t pick any faults with that !! You really should make a tv presenter !! Spot on !!!!!!👍🦌👍 thumbs up 18!👍
Wow, what a majestic species. I could watch them all day long. I absolutely love deer.

Awsome they are majestic , youre videos are very good , very well explained 👍
Interesting movie. Thank you for sharing this beauty. Lovely footage.
Wish you a pleasant weekend.
Best regards, Knut.
Very informative film and well presented 👌👍
Thanks Rosco! As a deer lover, I bet you already knew all the facts in the video?
@@AShotOfWildlife No actually I didn’t know about the males due to poor health of mother 👍
Great! That was also the one thing I learned whilst making the vid. I was quite surprised by the Hinds living for 20 years as well.
@@AShotOfWildlife yes typical they always do better than us 😂
Excellent informative video. Great facts! I'm a bit puzzled by the action shown at 2:15 as the individual "on top" appears to have no antlers!?

FANTASTIC AND BEAUTIFUL, NATURE AND BEAUTIFUL THANKS 👍🆗💯🤗👍
Very helpful and informative. Many thanks for sharing.
Wow! You got some really beautiful footage here. I didn't know about how females are more likely to be born,

@@AShotOfWildlife that makes sense I guess! You've now got me curious about how the male's genetics affect this?

Hi Liam,can you please do a video about bulls. To enhance the effects, please wear a bright red shirt, & be armed with a cattle prodder. Then sneak up behind the bull & give it a full voltage. Looking forward to seeing you flying through the air very soon. Thanks

Is the Red Deer native to UK?
Yes akong whith the roe deer
Yes, been here since the island broke off from the mainland.
Along with Roe Deer and Reindeer.
So good to see natural heads and not farmed mutants with 50 points
I looked up the word ‘spay’ on my dictionary app and the second definition said it means ‘a three-year-old male red deer.’ That seems oddly specific!
the claim that a weak hind should put a deer calf in order for it to emigrate with other deer, I am skeptical about.
As far as I know it suitsroe deer and not red deer.
A weak Hind will often put a Hind calf, for then she is sure to carry on her genes.
A strong hind bets on putting astag calf because there is a high probability that one day it will be strong enough to carry the grayling and thereby get its genes spread as far as possible
Hi Martin. Thanks for your input, I will try to find the original article that I got this information from to share with you.
Male red deer used to be known as "harts."
Most red deer are always huge but have the body of a larger doe but in the rut due to testosterone levels they get really lumpy and muscly, almost like steroids
I love red dear meat. It's half the price of moose meat and tastes the same.
I am personally not a fan, too rich for me, but each to their own.
@@AShotOfWildlife Totally fine!
Buck is a male deer doe is a female deer 🦌
Not with red deer. Red deer males are stags, females are hinds.
@@AShotOfWildlifewellnits both but stag and hind are only for red deer but does and buck are for all deer
I want to start deer farming ... Anyone to help and guide me through .. I am located in Ghana
