I'm not saying they aren't beautiful deer, they are.

What I'm saying is what makes a wild buck that size amazing is the fact that it survived nature and multiple hunting seasons to get to that size. These were probably hand-raised, never had to go more than 100yards for food or water and never had to survive someone trying to shoot them.


A buck getting to that size in the wild is impressive because he survived and thrived to get there.
A buck getting to that size in captivity is expected because it's not hard to remember where the food and water troughs are when you're not allowed more than a few 100yards away from them.
