Default Rubs from last season (pic1)

I got semi-lost in the bush in Nortern Alberta last season when I stumbled across this area torn up by a deer. Check out the height of the rubs (my cousin standing beside the tree) and notice one tree is tore in half in the other pic. This wan't from a moose as I saw the deer tracks all over the place. He beat the hell out of the trees like I've never seen before, I only wished he'd have crossed my path. JDinAB

Did you ever see the deer? Was he standing on his hind legs when he made those rubs?

Figruing the height of one of the rubs is around 20-24" taller than your cousin, and your cousin, I'm guessing is around 5.6"-6", the deer rub would be between 7-8 feet tall. The WT deer would've had to be standing on his hind legs when making that tall of a rub, which is deffinately a rare type of rub. I've never seen a deer do it, but maybe someone else has. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I'm thinking moose. If it's a deer it's a world record deer.
