Easy...Adaptive evolution. Millions of years of underlying genetic basis' of behavioral variation, to keep the species alive.

I base a lot of my hunting techniques and set-ups on the deer's instinct and survival: They have to eat, drink and breed to pass along their fertile seed to survive.

It's all about food. Except for rut, the quest for something to eat dominates their life. Their habits change during the year because their food sources change during the year. You find what they are eating this week and you'll find deer.
