Thanks Germ for the clarifications on the terms!

Another question on scrapes.

I found a very large scrape (at least larger than what I normally see) in an area near my wifes stand. I set up my trail cam watchin the scrape. It caught pics of bucks, does, fawns (bucks & does) and even a coon, ALL checking/using the scrape AND the licking branch.Severalwere bucks, mostly young ones but there was one very nice mature buck. Is it normal for all deer to use a scrape like a public restroom? I guess it is, I just never expected it.
