Buck Shedding Antler 

I'm positive it still hurts... You ever lost a tooth and it not hurt? We grow them back as well.

@@mmaqueen4298 If it hurt they wouldn’t shed their antlers

@@That._countrykid lol ok

It doesn't hurt, any animal with antlers sheds them every year in the beginning of winter. Their body knows it needs to conserve energy and that's why the antlers shed so the body can contain as much nutrients as possible through the winter. The only time a deers antlers hurt is if something happens when they are growing in the spring and the antlers are covered in velvet, they are very sensitive at that point, but in early summer they grow, get hard as bone and then the deer will scrape them in trees to get the velvet off. Antlers shed and grow back, horns are forever, say deer, moose, caribou, elk, all have antlers, cows, sheep, goats have horns. Pretty lucky to get that in film though and once a deer looses one antler he will try and knock the other one off for balance and being able to get through the woods and tight areas better.

@@chadbinette3201 Jesus christ ... Just because it's part of there process doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. I bleed, every month, for five days... Not once a year... Not twice a year... Every single month... Guess what? It never doesn't not hurt. It's part of my PROCESS... Trust me antlers falling out of LIVE skin doesn't feel good. I've done enough European mounts to know, that skin attaches to the antler every single year. You think you know more than me about this but I promise... You don't.

he's not freaking out at all he's trying to get rid of the other antler it's called shedding and all elks and bucks do it

If you search on youtube there is a really good video of this, you even hear the antler "pop" as it falls off. They usually get startled by the noise of it crashing into brush simply because deer are skittish by nature. The continuation of the deer freaking out is just him trying to ditch the other side. Though if he just rubbed a tree real good I am sure it would have just popped off.

Yeah, I think the only way it would hurt them is if it popped off and picked them. After all those tips are sharp! Looks more like this buck is excited more than anything! Lol

Supposedly it itches quite a lot, which promotes them rubbing it up against trees & whatnot. Once it's ready to come off, they rub against something (or shake their head as seen here) and -POP- off it goes.

they really dont freak out this one just happen to only shed one and realized it

Yeah cause everyone should be an expert on deer anatomy

@@didokell I mean an animal that has its masive trademark peice of its body falls off once a year kinda something simple you hear in passing and never forget. Pretty common knowledge if the animal is native to where you live.

Fuckin, you learn something new every year

@@Algorythmfpv Keyword: if it’s native to where you live

We’re not all nature experts. For me this is my first time hearing about it and it’s baffling.

Same, the algorithm strikes again.

@@parisashahabi5067 🎶 Same!🎶

Yep

hahaha i think i just came from that video

@@romanengelbrecht6717 both shaking the rain of there coats and the antlers fall off? I think we saw the same vid.

Thanks, I've learned a little about the whole process since that day. Fascinating, and a real privilege to witness. Guess I always assumed that huge racks just got bigger every year, but not so! Looked around for the other, but no joy. I feel very lucky to live where it's not uncommon to see deer and other wildlife in the yard.

teflon97239 GURL, DID U KEEP EM????🦌🦌🦌

He was trying to shed the other one because it had an itching sensation..So He wanted to get rid of this itchy sensation by dropping it..

True....this guy was a deer in his past life and remembers well the feeling of losing an antler....

@@matthewmellott3318 there are videos that can educate you on what causes deer to lose antlers...

My sister: quick, get the camera! Me: quick, get the .308!

@@DavidMcCoyII .308 for a deer is a lil overkill no?

@@DavidMcCoyII .308? Badass! 🤡

@@nali878 yeah, good point, I'll get the 40MM

doesnt hurt may be a little annoying

honestly you explained that pretty well lol

I've been winter hunting up north a bit and there it's getting cold as early as October. So by new year they would have had weeks of frost up to -35 C. All bucks still had their antlers.

@@IvanIvanov-vy7pt I always started shed hunting here on New Years day here. I actually have a buck on the game camera sitting on my deck shedding 2 consecutive years. December 26 and 27 were the days he shed. Then again I have seen a couple bucks in April still packing racks.

@@tt600pch Have you noticed any time difference of Mule deer vs White Tailed deer sheddings?

When my dad used to do natural gas work he'd walk around and find antlers around the pump houses. He had a pretty big pile of them in the garage before he sold them to people wanting to make antler chandeliers.

@@miniaturemachinist6098 Were are you and your dad from?

Yeah those were throes of ecstacy.

Its in the first chapter of "Marriage101 for dummies"

Man I'm married but can only let my wife get up about 8 things before I have to ask her what shes talking about lol.... I'm still learning.

@@Art_official_intelligenc3 Get out of that quick

Lmao, so true

When the incels enter the chat

She's just an unknowledgeable Joe.

@@teentraveler1790 naivety can be funny, chill

@@Algorythmfpv I already was. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ It's the og commenter seemed to be the one needing a chill pill though.

At least she didn't shoot up a school full of kids like men

I'm pretty sure they grow back bigger every year.

@@gregstewart6973 they do

(same)

Did the deer tell you that?

Does the daily hair you shed from your head hurt?

congrats man ur so smart

Yes

And eventually if you dont clip them they will naturally start peeling and fall off

Probably like losing your baby teeth!

Probably in the same way that pulling a loose tooth doesn't hurt.
