Whitetail Deer:

Due to increased natural mortality in whitetail bucks as opposed to does, as well as structuring of hunting seasons, and hunter's preference for large antlered animals, fully mature whitetail bucks are as rare as hen's teeth throughout most of their range.  Thus the pricing structure you see here.

A8-17 Bedded Mature Whitetail Buck $400.00	A8-85 Mature Whitetail Buck $400.00	A9-101 Mature Whitetail Buck $400.00	A1-36 Mature Whitetail Buck $400.00	A8-7 Mature Whitetail Buck $400.00
The above five photos are all of the same buck.  For almost ten years I functioned as Chief Photographer for a Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada.  This buck was the only buck I was aware of that I was able to photograph for three consecutive years  I estimated his age at four and one-half years when these photos were obtained.  Unfortunately I never saw him again after his fourth year.  He, and some of his pictures (including A8-85) , formed the basis for a magazine article published in 2000.

Many years ago now, Leonard Lee Rue wrote a magazine article in which he attempted to explain why mortality rates were (are) much higher in male whitetail fawns than females.  He used words and phrases such as "adventurous", "rambunctious", "high spirited", "inquisitive", etc.  A month or two after the magazine came out a lady wrote in to tell Mr. Rue that he could just as easily have described the increased mortality rates of the young males as due to stupidity in comparison to their females cohorts.  I don't know if males are any less bright than females, however, I do know it's a fact that throughout their lives male whitetails die at a much higher rate than females.  The lower prices attached to these female photos is not in any way meant to infer a lessened admiration on my behalf for females of the species instead it reflects the fact there are simply far more of them to photograph, hence they're easier to find.

Throughout my life I have prided myself on my ability to "reach out and touch the animal".  When hunting I never considered myself "a shooter", instead my interest lie in getting as close to an animal as possible, without disturbing it.  Hence I take special pride in just how many photos I have of bedded animals.

As I pride myself in catching bedded animals.  I also pride myself in discovering concealed young.  I've spent many hours and walked many miles to find spring time young, as these photos demonstrate.
