(for me anyway) I was driving out to my property this early afternoon and right there on the side of the gravel was a little spiker mounting a doe. I interupted their afternoon delight with my rude arrival,but they ran only 50 yards or so and she stopped again and let him mount her a second time. I drove off and let them have their fun.... Thought it was pretty cool,
Pretty cool, never seen that before either!
I've only seen that one time in my 19 years of deer hunting... don't know if I'll see it for another 19 or not :D
I've seen a buck fawn try to mount his mama...
A friend of mine passed on a bull elk because he didn't want to interrupt him! I might not have been so kind.

He would have died happy :D
I bet you the spiker thought it was pretty cool too.
I live across from the USDA farm in Beltsville, MD. They were doing research on Yew trees and had a double row about 80 or 100 ft long. Those trees were there for years. Saw my first buck fight there, and my first buck mounting a doe. Of course, with all research it comes to an end and passed by one day and they were chopping and grinding all those trees into little pieces. Don't see any kind of critters there any more.
I've seen it twice in 20 plus years. Once this week when I had my 8 year old daughter Mattie in a tree stand with me about 40 yards away. She kept asking why is that that daddy deer doing that to the mommy deer. Quite a lesson for both of us.

My brother's little boy asked him that question once when he saw 2 dogs hung up [ he was about 4 yrs. old at the time ]..... my brother quickly answered.... "Eddy that one dog has sore feet and the other one is helping him home". :wavey:
