Hard to argue that definition, I' ll still it as a deer in it' s first year of life....but what difference does it make? None, I' m sure! We all agree that a 6mth old deer isn' t a shooter....well most of us!
And one more.....
Should a young deer be a fawn until it is 1 year old, or until it' s weened? Kinda reverts back to the original question, but seperately what do you think?
