what U think? A hybred?
This is the deer we found which was killed by either yotes or a cougar. What do you think, 1/2 mule 1/2 whitetail?
This was also my 1st try at doing a european mount. His nose got a little chewed off
Never seen any other deer arround here with that trait.

What, the trait of no nose?bcmuledeer wrote: His nose got a little chewed off. Never seen any other deer arround here with that trait.
I call 100% mule
Was there any hide left for you to see his colouring when you found him?

Re: what U think? A hybred?
Hard to say but hybridization is very common, whitetails bucks are more aggressive, it's actually displacing mulies (which are hybrids themselves) from some of their former ranges.

Why hunt? Simple, it's BASIC. Why breath?!

Re: what U think? A hybred?
Just because there is no fork in the G-2 on these deer (leaving them with a "whitetail" looking rack) does not make them a mix. Whitetails can have mule-looking forked G-2 also, but they are still just plain old whitetails.

Re: what U think? A hybred?
Without seeing the body we can only speculate (tail, head/face characteristics). I can tell you that mine was a typical hybred that we see often enough. Mulies have bifurcated antlers. When we talked to a CO and butcher we were told to tag it the way we saw it if we had both tags.

Re: what U think? A hybred?
Boo, what were all the characteristics about this buck that showed you he was a cross? I know a rancher in Idaho who told me they get some huge hybrids.
Does mulie meat taste better than whitetail?

Re: what U think? A hybred?
Skull cap, big ears, a thinly furred tail, the CO and butcher telling us. Whitetails in this area are all brown. Yes, I they taste different and I like it much better.Mr. Dynamite wrote:Boo, what were all the characteristics about this buck that showed you he was a cross?

Re: what U think? A hybred?
What is the difference between the 2 kinds of skull caps? I think I read mulies have a bigger head/cap?
Gonna have to try some mulie meat some time

Re: what U think? A hybred?
It was very hard to judge the colour, there was not to much left, lots of gray hair but hard to say! What got me thinking hybird is because of the forward angle of the antlers and the way the points seem to come off one main beam.
