Davidp16 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Thats disgusting to of just hit it and take the antlers! that would be something i would expect from a poacher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakeman4 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 most often times, little critters, mice rats and such will make a quick disappearance of deer antler. the marrow in the bone is very good for small mammals and keeping their teeth small.

pike007 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 surprised coyotes didnot get to that carcass yet, well im sure they will soon. 007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveC Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 who knows, could have been someone else other than the person who hit it. Spotted it in the ditch and wanted the antlers. The coyotes will be there soon for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captnn Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Whats wrong with taking the antlers? The deer doesn't need them any more. Antlers can be used for many things, knife handles, coat hangers and the list goes on. Why do you think people search for sheds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snags Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I dont understand the issue ... someone hit the deer ... took the antlers ... same person or not ... what does it matter unless the deer was intentionally hit for the antlers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadadude Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 antlers could have been shed already, who smashes a deer for the antlers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadadude Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 most often times, little critters, mice rats and such will make a quick disappearance of deer antler. the marrow in the bone is very good for small mammals and keeping their teeth small. exactly, deer/moose antlers are a source of calcium and minerals for most rodents, this is why if you want sheds you do it early spring before the mice get active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackz905 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 its not a big issue i just thought it was intresting someone would take the time to saw off the antlers because i thought they were useless except for dog chew toys and knife handles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jesse Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I live right beside the QEW in Forterie & have stopped at a roadkill & took the antlers in a clean manner.1 set used as a rattle & another set my retriever loved!! If you were the guy i seen midday cutting the whole head off on the side of the road that might have been a much for bypassers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blairwelsh Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Sorry Blair, I have always enjoyed your post's in the past but I can't share your humour with the Tom Green thing. He is a sick puppy. My .02 ............................Boog No worries...... I found his Movie (Freddie Got Fingered) the most HORRIBLE of all time! lol When I used to live in Ottawa, thats when his little Rogers Cable Show was on. Thought he was weird and out there... but enjoyed some of his stuff. He can definately .... take it over the limits of decorum. For this particular post, it was the first thing that came to my mind .... (the clip) when i saw the dead dear. Bad taste ..... difference of opinions. Nothing personal. Thanks for the point of view ... I have no doubt that many share that on the clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
