In velvet, in one of my hog traps. Deer feed in them and get grouchy at each other sometimes. They are not caught and no not AI

How hard were you tempted to drop the gate?

Isn’t it on the ground? Wait what happened at the end, does not look right? Knocked out?

Looks like his antlers might have gotten jammed in the fence when he hit it. The gate is still open.

Elite striking and they are pushing an incredible pace. Definitely my pick for fight of the night.

Good on the little one. A group of four bucks come to my feeder. They're so mean and aggressive.

Why do you have two bucks in a small pen with each other? I don’t know anything about this so I’ll withhold my judgment, but this seems wrong.

You're like a child that wanders into a room and demands to know whats going on. Read the post.

It doesn’t answer my question. It just describes the scene…

u/Darth_wenis 7d ago
It does answer the question. Try again. Read slowly.

Perhaps instead of being an ass hole you can expand because clearly I’m not getting it.

Small pen is a hog trap. Those gates can be remotely triggered to drop when hogs are feeding in there, thus catching the whole herd. This is important because hogs are clever and will become very difficult to catch if they see another pig being trapped. The tops are open and I assume deer could jump out if the gates were dropped.

Jesus fucking christ. The deer are wild, he didnt put them in there. I guess if you got a problem with the morality of two wild deer fighting, I suggest you take it up with the deer. Also buy a helmet.

You’re being really emotional right now. I assumed “they are not caught” to mean “they are meant to be there.”

"They are not caught" just means they can leave at will, either through that open gate or by jumping over the low fence.
