Default RE: A few interesting pics

ORIGINAL: wahoohunter

wow, there is nothing more sad than seeing a deer with one of its back legs shot off. Deer can run nearly as fast on three legs as four if its a front leg that is gone, taking off a back leg is like removing a rear tire from a rear-wheel drive car
Oh contrare....deer are actually quite evenly distributed when it comes to using their legs to run. They dig equally as hard (if not harder) with their front legs to pull them ahead, as they use their back legs to push off. So its kinda like taking a wheel from a 4X4. Which would explain why they are still so darn fast! But either way, its still incredible tothink what them animals can do.


Also, sweet pics you got there Jim! Id crap if I had that first guy on one of my cams!
