Yeah, no doubt, this guy's a fighter.
You know, they also break their antlers off on trees. A friend and I were watching this and I think that they sometimes try to "adjust" their antlers to something that feels good to them. Unfortunately, occasionally one knocks off a whole side and he's screwed for the season.
The September/October floods in Colorado had most of this wood under water for at least a couple of weeks and some of our biggest bucks moved out of the park for drier ground (we think, since the rangers haven't found evidence of pouching). This has been a great opportunity of the young bucks to claim the remaining doe when they otherwise might not have had a chance.
