"that still wouldnt affect the ratio"

How is that?? Let's say that you see 40 fawns, you put 20 in the buck "catagory" and 20 in the doe "catagory". You have just increased the total number of bucks by 20 and the total number of does by 20. Now lets say that you have a 1:2 Buck:doe ratio, and that the total number of bucks is 50 and the total number of does is 100. If you add 20 deer to each catagory, then you are going to change the buck:doe ratio.
