If you read the entire article you'd know this is not a hybrid - 100% mule deer. it said the deer's testicles "were entirely metastasized, a hard, cancerous wad of tissue"...its not unusual for them to grow non-typical (for mule deer standards) horns when they lack testosterone

I guess for people who hunt for trophies this might be good news, but for people who hunt for meat this is not good at all. We have mule deer moving into Ohio, and I'm all for moving them right back out. Leave my tender, yummie whitetail alone!
For the record, as someone who hunts to stock my freezer, I don't appreciate those who hunt to decorate their walls.

yes
How do you justify killing things you don't eat to the people trying to take away your rights to hunt? You're insulating your walls? I don't hunt bear because it's too greasy, I can't eat it. I justify hunting whitetail because I eat four of them a year. I can justify everything I kill beyond decorating my walls.

It's more then likely a mulie.Alot of 3x3's antlers tend to go more forwad but the brow tines deffinately are muley.Colour of coat is mulie, face is mulie, so are the ears.The only thing I can't tell to confirm for is the tail and ass end, one can also sometimes tell by the hoofs.
