Deer threesome??
 
I can't seem to get the pic to upload, but a relative sent me a photo take in a friend's backyard. During Michigan's rut, a doe appeared in her backyard and a buck soon followed and mounted. However, as the first buck was going at it, second buck appeared and tried to mount the first buck. In other words, a buck trying to mount another buck that's mounting a doe.

Anyone ever seen other deer do that?

Deer threesome??
 
Yearling does usually give birth to single fawns. Mature does in good physical condition frequently produce twins. Newborn spotted fawns remain hidden and solitary for about three weeks.My children touched the fawn and I'm afraid the mother won't take it back - what should I do? The doe-fawn bond is very strong. A mother deer will not avoid her fawn if there are human or pet odors on it. Fawns are rarely abandoned, except in extreme cases where the fawn has defects which will prevent its survival.This means that young males, or "bucks", often leave their birthplace to find their own territory, reducing the chance of mating with their mothers or sisters. However, in nature, there are exceptions to every rule, and inbreeding can occur under certain circumstances, such as limited availability of mates.

It is not unusual in the animal world for animals to exhibit homosexual activity. I is not unusual, to see a cow mounting another cow in a pasture. It is more about being superior than sexual.

Good point about cattle. Since making the post, another hunter told me he'd seen that same thing from a deer stand.
