RE: Deer on 2 legs

I've seen it a few times, but the coolest was watching a doe stand on her hind legs for minutes at a time pulling persimmons off the tree. I thought that they waited for them to hit the ground, but I was wrong. I would have take photo/video but I was at the McAlester Army Ammunitions plant and you cant have anything with glass, lenses, or battery power... that means no cameras, RF's, binos, etc.

I'm not sure I know who the winner was, but I shot the one that stayed by the stand while it was feeding.

I guess that would make her the loser!

Great pic!

Weird. I guess this is much more common than I had thought. The ones standing up look like they're looking down their snouts at the 4 leggers!

Anyone know how far a deer can walk on their hind legs or how long they can stay up on their hind legs?
