Couple years ago we had a bad winter, tons of snow and layers of ice in between.That spring I found around 30 dead deer while looking for sheds, and what was really odd was 3/4 of them were bucks that had shed thier antlers and they were for the most partlying in fencelines where the snow was the deepest.Almost looked like the coyotes were chasing them into these fencelines on purpose where they would get bogged down in the snow and not be able to get away.Lost a lotta pheasants and turkeys that year as well.Nature can be a harsh place
