I can see the argument of the more symmetrical deer being a better specimen, but I just don't buy it. To me that is an engineer looking at nature.
Symmetry is important in manufacturing, but since when has nature been symmetrical? I mean really, in all my wildlife classes symmetry was not a common word, diversity was. Diverse systems are the healthy ones in nature, so shouldn't we be celebrating the non-typical racks instead of the typical ones?A different line of reasoning, I know, but it is much more the way I look at nature.
Put 15 oak trees together, do they all look the same? Theforester would love it if they were,it would make yield much better for the timber company, but it really says squat about the health of the forest.
Anyways, everyone has their own opinion, it's all good. I am a gross scorekind of person though.
