Do southern deer really duck faster?
I have heard it multiple times from differnt sources but does any one on here have the experience to back that up? If so where does the southern "ducking" border start?

I dunno. May be some truth to the claim.
I know a gymnast is much more nimble than a sumo wrestler. |

I knew something like this was coming. I was just wondering who would start it.:D:D

The ducking border runs along the 78th parallel.:D They say the gravitational pull south of this line allows the deer to "duck" faster.

Honestly, I would bet that the reaction times are identical, and the difference may be perceived as faster because the southern deer can get their smaller bodies out of the way faster, not because of reaction time but because of less travel necessary to get out of the way. I don't know if I said that right.

Not sure, but the SEC sure put on stomping on you northern boys in football and basketball this year :D
I would only assume our deer are superior athletes as well? [8D] |
