December 1, 2006: Mule deer buck sports hair net
 

http://cellar.org/2006/buckhairnet.jpg

Via Spluch comes this fashion accessory, seen in Durango, Colorado. A wildlife official decided it was safer to let the buck keep his look. But he'll have to drop it before rutting season... no way any self-respecting doe is gonna let that boy anywhere near. He's a little off, he is.

These bucks today...when I was young, no self-respecting young deer would allow themselves to wear something like that. Bet he secretly wishes he was a doe. Hmpf.

He was probably in the middle of helping some grandma ball up skeins of yarn when he got spooked and ran off.

Next thing you know he'll want same sex marriage!

:lol:

I hope that between now and the time that he drops those antlers he doesn't get that net caught in anything like tree branches. I can imagine him getting really trapped. That could be the end for him if it happens. Then he'd be just one more stastistic of a wild creature brought down by human garbage.

I have an uncle up in Minnesota who was fishing on the Snake river a few years ago when a big buck jumped into the river and began to cross it. Some how he got the fishing line tangled in his antlers and took off with the lure hanging from his rack after the line broke. My uncle got written up in the local paper with his story and he asked that if anyone shot a buck with a Rapalla lure attached to the antlers to please return it to him. ;)

Cute story, chrisinhouston.

So what the hell was that tangled mess on his antlers? A hammock? There's a clasp or a carabiner hanging off the mess on the right side. Theories?

Edit: I suppose it helps to read the article's headline. Never mind.

I should have noted in my stuff that it was a volleyball net.

It's obvious that the buck migrated from Jamaica. He's Rasta.

I've seen a guy with a toupee that looks like that.

Guys will do anything for attention.

I can imagine what the chick deer are thinking: "you know, I would mate with that guy over there, but what's with the antlers? I don't want to put a kid through that!"

You never know - all the finest does might just think that's the hottest thing ever, and next rutting season the bucks will strip the suburbs of all volleyball netting.

bottom line: if you're a buck, just don't play volleyball :rolleyes:

Here come the fashion copycats

The chicks are eating it up. I keep telling you, it's dreads.

Or just don't go for the spike!

I wonder how they shed their antlers? It's hard to believe that both antlers magically drop off at the same time. More likely it would be at least a day or two between them.

If the does are afraid to mate him, then the wolves might be afraid to eat him. :D

Topeka – Effective immediately, the Kansas Board of Education is banning the use of all purple volleyball nets until the effects of said purple netting on the Satanic desires of young boys to become young ladies can be determined with biblical precision.

That and carbon dating was invented by the devil. Which makes sense. Carbon being the residue of burnt stuff. And all burnt stuff comes from hell. Where it got burnt.

He seems not the least bit perturbed.
I think he looks pretty suave.:cool: I think he'd agree.

Speaking of wet deer... Here's a picture I snapped from the back of a train.

So beautiful!

No, I'm not. I have a batch of blackberry merlot marinade just waiting for him.

One should not treat electronics like that!

you know, purple is the color of royalty! i think he's cute!

i think he's going for that Marge Simpson look. i cannot offer any explanation about why he would, though.

Howdy, Cowgirl!
