Thread: The pecking order

If you have raised deer before and or watch them often and study behavioral things they often do and observe who is who in the herd , you might have seen this before .
Deer (both sexes ) have a "pecking" order and I mean they actually peck hard and nip at the same time right on the buttocks area of the lesser deer !
mind you this , just cause one looks sort of mangy from the mid section back does not mean it has an illness , it often times means it is the peckeee and not the pecker .....
just saying ....
the buck in the front in this image is about to get "pecked" ....
