Do whitetail bucks fight at night?

I wouldn't rattle before shooting light. When I have had response to rattling, it has been very fast. They won't hang around waiting for daylight if they don't find what they were expecting.

Of course there is. During the rut the males get stupid and less caring. My brother shot one who was on the trail of a doe. The stupid thing had already been shot twice before but he was still wanting to get it on.

Not too many. Surprisingly, experts do not consider human poachers to be a serious threat to night monkeys (or owl monkeys, as they are sometimes called). The same goes for nocturnal predators such as owls, big cats or snakes.  The reason for this is that the monkeys take preventive actions - they tend to change their sleeping locations regurlarly, and they use an elaborate set of "spoken words" either to warn each other or to startle a potential attacker.\nSome say that the great horned owl (Bubo virginianus) is a typical predator for those monkeys.

Between 10 p.m. to 12 in night.

we have raised  5 deers and I find they like the horse and mule sweet feed best. we also use plain whole corn or crete. but they will also browse on other green stuff. and still come back to the horse and mule feed.no matter what you feed them, they will still browse other food we had 2 bucks and 3 does. and they does  brings in their little one's to us.they also loved to be scratched  behind the ear's and jaws

we have em in PA. I saw my first one the other day. it was an old dude in a beat-up pick-up truck. he was picking up deer carcases. he was wearing short sleaves and not rubber gloves. one of the hoofs was sticking out over the side and he was pokeing it back in with an old crutch. very cucky!

Deer are on the move during late fall and early winter, either because it's hunting season or because they are seeking a mate.\n\nOn the highways and byways across North America, nearly 750,000 collisions occur each year between deer and vehicles. Efforts to reduce that number have spun off a multi-million-dollar industry: deer whistles.\n \nPeter Scheifele, director of bioacoustics research at the National Undersea Research Center, conducted a scientific study of deer whistles. \n \nScheifele, an animal bioacoustics and audiology expert, wanted to know more about the devices, so he and his research team scientifically tested their effectiveness.\n\nThe small plastic whistles, easily attached to car bumpers, hit the marketplace several years ago. Some are sold for as little as five dollars. They vary in design, but their claims are relatively the same. Their manufacturers promote them as "acoustic attention-getters", alleging deer would react to the whistle by remaining still.\n\n"There has been a lot of conjecture about whether the whistles work or don't work, and we are one of the first independent groups to scientifically test them," says Scheifele, director of bioacoustic research at the National Undersea Research Center at Avery Point and a researcher in the Department of Animal Science.\n\nHe and his team tested six air-fed whistles in the laboratory and in the field. The study's goal was to determine the actual frequencies generated by the whistles and the intensity at which they are produced, compare that data to the hearing abilities of deer, and then take the animal's acoustic behavior into consideration.\n\nFollowing the directions on each package, the team mounted the devices onto a car's front bumper. Using a road closed to the public, they drove the car at speeds ranging from 30 to 45 miles per hour while recording sound and data.\n\n"We tested them strictly from an acoustical point of view," explains Scheifele. He found that the whistles typically produce a signal either at a frequency of 3 kilohertz (kHz) or 12 kHz. Both, as it turns out, are problematic.\n\nThe hearing range of white-tailed deer, the most common species in the United States, is between 2 kHz and 6 kHz, so the animal is not capable of hearing the 12 kHz signal.\n\nAlthough deer may be able to hear the 3 kHz signal, it is only 3 decibels louder than the road noise created by the car, so the signal is buried. Scheifele points out that the situation would be worse with additional traffic in the area or if the wind was blowing.\n\nSince completing the study, a new electronic whistle has been put on the market. Although Scheifele has not had an opportunity to test it, he has examined its advertising claims. He says the specs for the electronic whistle are considerably different from those of the air-fed devices, so "there is a possibility that the electronic whistle is more effective than the air-fed devices."\n\nBut even if deer can hear the electronic signal, the UConn scientist questions how one alerts rather than startles the animal. This is where animal behavior comes into play.\n\n"Think about the metaphor 'deer in the headlights'," says Scheifele. "It is used to conjure up an image of someone who is confused or frightened. When deer sense something unusual, we do not know for sure how they are going to react."\n\nWill they freeze in their tracks, run off, or charge towards the sound? Their behavior is related to the "fight-or-flight response". According to scientific literature on the subject, there is an amount of space in which an animal feels safe, but once that boundary is violated, the animal's reaction is unpredictable. Its response will depend on a number of factors, including age, sex, type of enemy, and surroundings.\n\n"All in all, the air-fed whistles do not make sense to me acoustically, " states Scheifele.\n\nHe has wri

Nope.  They're gonna lose.  \n\nGO BUCKS!!

Must be out hunting deer.

Not likely. He probably saw a white tail that was a little dark. Blacktail are strictly a Pacific Northwest deer.\n\nWhitetails are Odocoileus virginianus\nhttp://www.mnh2.si.edu/education/mna/image_info.cfm?species_id=231\n\nIt is easier to tell them apart by the antlers than the tail color. Blacktail and muleys have a main antler beam that goes up then branches. Whitetails have a main antler beam that goes forward and the tines go up. \n\nSome animal lists don't even include the Blacktail. They say that they are a subspecies of Mule Deer. \nOdocoileus hemionus\nhttp://www.mnh2.si.edu/education/mna/image_info.cfm?species_id=229\n\n\nThis link tells you more than you will ever need to know about blackies.\nhttp://www.blacktailcountry.com/html/blkpage.htm\n\nIn the field, I can't actually tell the difference between mule deer and blacktails, but I think the horns hanging in my garage are blacktail.\n\nKeep your muzzle in a safe direction!\nLeigh M\nhttp://www.NWSafe.org

i am not sure i have only been in MO for a few months but i have seen them in Mississippi Oh wait I saw some road kill the other day i think it may have been an armadillo there were scales but they werent doing very much protecting

Nope. The eco-greenies watch 'em like crazy. The are in Upper Peninsula Michigan and around Yellowstone & Idaho & some of Oregon. You probably saw a coyote. They are all over. even in town.

white settlers believe in cultivating privately owned land, while the natives believed land belonged to everyone and could not be purchased. whites were farmers, while natives were hunters and gatherers. the white americans promised to reserve certain lands in the west for the native americans, however after many broken treatys they began to distrust the white men. white settlers invaded sand creek even though the cheyenne indians were not attacking and hoped for peace because of bitterness between the two groups. the ghost dance was supposed to bring back the native american way of life before white man interferred. in the battle of little bighorn, white soldiers were severely outnumbered and defeated by the native americans, fueling the fire between the two goups even more.\n\n\nthats pretty much all i can tell you but i hope it helps

but what they dont know is that chuck norris is better at blind folded matches, so in caves, which are dark he might be better, so they would actually be safer outside the caves.\n\ngood luck

The red dot is only in your sight not like a laser dot that shines on the target directly.  So I would say NO.\n\nAlso I would say to check your local laws about using a gun after dark.  In my state it is illegal to hunt at night, except for racoon.

They could be feeding at that spot at night ,or they could smell you in your stand or they may not be used to the stand and it spooks them if its new to the area,Best time of day i feel is just starting to get light or just starting to get dark deer are usually on the move to or from bedding and feeding sites
