Default RE: Oldest deer ever harvested??

ORIGINAL: Schultzy

I don't know If I agree with the dry doe part these folks are implying on. My dad lives in Northern Minnesota, they feed the deer corn every winter in a big bird bath about 10 yards from the house. (Its really neat watching them this close). Anyway they have a doe thats been coming in for 17 years straight now. She don't have a tail so thats how they know its her. Dad told me that she hasn't had a fawn now for at least 5 years. When these old doe's get old, allot of times I don't think they have any fawns. I'm guessing they still get bred but I think all of the energy goes into keeping themselves fit, thus they never have the fawn. In the Northern States I think it fits better with what I said because of the harsh winters.
I guess "no more tail" means "no more tail"??
