  1. Some time ago on this site I accessed a web address which showed a color coded "Classification data for coues wt in AZ" density map. I've since tried to find it but with no success. Can you help direct me to it?

    Doe with antlers

    It is possible that some of these examples are what is known as a hermaphrodite. In this case, a deer with the sex organs of both male and female. I can't remember what it is called if it possesses all the correct sex organs of a doe but has antlers too, or vise-versa. I've seen a few livestock borne this way. Unusual in nature? Yes. But most experienced livestock or animal breeders of registered lines have seen one-to-multiple. If it is less UNusual in whitetail, perhaps it is because they seem to be more family/herd group oriented and territorial than other ungulates in the deer family. This would make interbreeding more likely, which is the cause of the genetic condition. Just a thought.
