Protective Mule Deer Doe Pummels Dog

Postby Dan Schmidt » Thu Jul 22, 2010 4:45 pm

Not sure if you guys have seen this one yet, but it is yet another example of how protective a maternal deer can be when she even senses slight danger to her fawn.

Make special note of her aggressive grunts when she is responding to the fawn.

I agree. What amazing animals (whitetails and muleys).
I'm confused how that dog survived. I've heard that hooves can be very devistating if they hit you in the proper place.

Ah Dan you beat me to it.  I was just about to post that video until I saw that you did.
