i need the answer a.s.a.p!!!Why are white tailed deer threatened?
They're beginning to be threatened, as usually happens when a population grows out of control.
For decades, they've had few or no natural predators, causing their numbers to balloon. As a result, nature steps in, and chronic wasting disease is now spreading.
Their natural habitat is also quickly shrinking, so that they're being forced into suburban, and even urban situations, resulting in more deer being struck by vehicles than in the past.
In some states, season and per-day hunting limits have been increased because area deer populations are growing at an alarming rate.
Hope this helps!Why are white tailed deer threatened?
White deer arnt, not by us. In the state of wisconsin, there are 1.5 million dear..
White tail deer are at risk for getting a ton of diseases like Cronic Wasting Disease which has a high infection rate when deer are clustered together. And when they have masses of deer, like 1.5 million, there are going to be noses touching.
Though, they are not going to die off anytime soon.
Well, for one, they're hunted. Secondly, we're cutting down forest to accommodate the human population growth; therefore making it harder for them to survive because they're pushed out of their habitat.
Lets put it this way- the existence of us is affecting them xD
But in many places, there's a lot of them to begin with so I'm not so sure if they really are in danger o.O
Are you kidding? The population of whitetail deer has soared in the past century. There are now over 29 million whitetail deer living in the US.
They are classified ';least concern'; by the IUCN, and are not listed as endangered or threatened under the US Endangered Species Act.
They aren't. Estimates are that there are more in the United States than in the time of the colonies.
because i am hungry.

Do boy scouts hunt deer? If so, how and when?
I'm sorry to sound so stupid about the subject at hand. However, if boy scouts do hunt deer, could someone please explain to me how trips to do such are planned.Do boy scouts hunt deer? If so, how and when?
no, hunting isn't supported by the the BSA organizationDo boy scouts hunt deer? If so, how and when?
although in the venturing program in bsa hunting is allowed
You do learn how to shoot and maintain a gun, safety, loading and cleaning. Target practice is all, no animals involved.

Name some plants that deer will avoid.?
My area is infested with deer. I have Oleander and Vitex that they won't touch but would like more color and variety. All the following have been eaten. Plum tree, marigolds, daisies, Nandina shrubs, and morning glories. And I'm not fond of any cacti.Name some plants that deer will avoid.?
Floxglove. Juniper. Holly.
This is an excellent site for finding the ';deer rating'; of a plant:
http://njaes.rutgers.edu/deerresistance/Name some plants that deer will avoid.?
This is not a plant, but if you go to the beauty shop or barber shop and collect the hair swept off the floor, you can use it as mulch and it keeps the deer away.
If you search ';deerproof plants'; you'll come up with a dozen sites with lists of them. Be aware, though, that deer will eat almost anything once, that what they eat can change by the season, and what they don't touch at your neighbour's place they might eat at your place. I've even had the same kind of plant remain untouched at one location on my property while the deer nibbled it at another location. Best you can hope for is plants they won't strip down to stalks, more than once a season anyway. Generally speaking, aromatic stuff like herbs is left alone, but almost anything with any flowers gets eaten.
Try anything with aromatic foliage (rosemary, lavendar, salvia gregrii, santolina, most herbs). The deer here in California also seem to avoid ornamental grasses, dianthus, teucrium, and anything with silver/gray foliage. Good Luck!
honest to god i havent seen any plant they wont feed on. i live practically in the mountain and they even eat some of our flowers. i would imagine there is some plant or plant they wont eat but i havent seen any yet.
All t6he answers are correct but most of the plants deer dont like are deer resistant not deer proof so they may try them anyhow

I found a dead deer under my porch?
I'm confused how did it get there, what do Ido withit?!I found a dead deer under my porch?
That is very odd. My best guess would be that a dog or wild animal drug it under there. Call animal control or the sherriff's office. (not 911)I found a dead deer under my porch?
Maybe it was sick and was resting under your porch. Then maybe it got very very sick and died there. Well, I think that you should call the animal control, let them remove its body.
Its possible it crawled there and then died. call animal control they will remove the body.
call your city hall they will be able to tell you what to do but don't touch it just let them handle it lol
I agree with everyone else on here!

One more deer question them I am done, deer summer sausage rolls, anyone?
know how to make these, my husbands buddy makes them says it takes three days to cook anyone know what this recipe is, sure would get me points with the hubbieOne more deer question them I am done, deer summer sausage rolls, anyone?
yes, I'll take one.One more deer question them I am done, deer summer sausage rolls, anyone?
Deer meat, if properly handled in the field, by a knowledgeable hunter, is superb in its original form. To ruin it by making sausage out of it is disgraceful and an outright insult to all deer. If the meat tastes so bad that you have to make sausage from it and disguise its fine taste, then your hubby is not handling the animal properly in the field and needs special education on field dressing of deer. Like all things, there is a right way, wrong way and best way to handle these animals in order to achieve perfect taste of the meat. Most hunters never have even heard of the best way.
You can buy the flavorings and mahogany skins to stuff. I am assuming you mean deer salami that would be about 2 and 3/4 inch diameter about 2 and half feet long.
If you buy a whole kit, it will cost about 18 bucks and makes about 10 3 pound sticks of salami. Having a grinder and some lean pork butt to add on a 50/50 basis with the deer is a given. You can get the kits at Cabelas.
Having a sausage/salami stuffer is even better especially if it is the high end type.Curing the sausage is done in about 2-3 hours in your oven at temps ranging from 150 -225 degrees. You may want to turn the salamis so they don't get too done in one spot. These will keep for 2 weeks in the fridge but most folks freeze them and take them out as needed. However, a frost free freezer will sooner or later '; shrink'; the salami and make it very hard since it is taking the moisture out.
Making it at home is not that hard and will end up costing about 4 dollars per stick. Good luck and enjoy.
Can't say I do but check with his buddy would be my first suggestion, if its his secret ask his wife lol, other then that the place that processes his meat will most likely have something like it. And your husband sure is a lucky fella to have his wife take up such an interest in this, if you have any twins, I will glady forward you my address.
1st: Donald S shut up, no one needs to hear your incessant ramblings or opinions of how they should eat their deer! It is personal taste.
I, like many people have many things made out of my deer, breakfast sausage, summer sausage, pepperoni ect. I get some great recipes from meat markets and game processors. Try them first, or you could google any combination of what you are looking for. Good luck.
My husband always gets this done at the meat processor. He gets sausage, jerky, bologna, summer sausage and ham along with the regular cuts.
yeah , donald , stuff it...i make excellent sausage along with steaks and roasts...just because you dont like it , dont knock it...you sound like one of those citiots who makes out into the woods a couple times a year...hair brush

No matter how nice i am to my 3year old deer chihuahuah she still growls at me shes very attatched to my mom?
so what can i make her do to luv me ?
and is it true the hand who feeds her she luvs more?
and my dog when ever i go to pick her up or baby her she runs why does she run?No matter how nice i am to my 3year old deer chihuahuah she still growls at me shes very attatched to my mom?
Dogs are pack animals and they probably consider you one of the pack members with whom they are in competition with for the attention of the alpha female, the leader, your mom. She is the one who provides the food, probably makes and enforces the rules and they see you as a member of the pack. They might be confused about your role in the pack since you are also lead by the pack leader but you probably also get affection not given to a normal pack member so they might be a little threatened by you. You need to establish yourself as a dominant member of the pack. You need to be firm but loving, self assured, stand up tall and speak firmly. Don't get scared or jump away as they will think that is a weakness. Get chances to feed them and try to put your smell on the food or the bowls so they understand its comign from you. If you want to learn more about how to communicate with dogs check out The Dog Whisperer either on TV or on the internet. Remember dogs aren't people, they see the world differently than us. Good luck!No matter how nice i am to my 3year old deer chihuahuah she still growls at me shes very attatched to my mom?
awww, well most dogs don't like to be picked up which is why she runs away...your right about the feeding...feed her some of the time and she'l' love you more...also play with her and use her toys
Ok,your dog is attached to your mother because she feels she is the pack leader instead of u or your mom. So to her your mom is her ';property'; n she has to protect it. If u dont walk your dog for at least 20 minutes,3 times a week then she will bahave badly because shes not physically and mentaslly excersised. And wutever you do DO NOT give her kisses or treats. ONLY reward her when she has achieved a trick or obstacle like sitting on command,im a dog phsycologist taught from ceaser millan.

Why don't whitetail deer have kidneys?
I have field dressed(gut) hundreds if not close to a thousnd whitetails in my 25 years of hunting,they have a liver but no kidneys,i'm not the only deer hunter that has wondered this.I have no problem giving 10 points to the correct answerWhy don't whitetail deer have kidneys?
You've dressed hundreds if not thousands of deer? REALLY! And you've never seen a deers kidneys? REALLY?? I can smell the BS from here.Why don't whitetail deer have kidneys?
I hate to be one of those ';jumping on'; guys, but of course Deer have kidneys, as do all mammals. Your failure to find them does not mean they don't exist, and your claims of a thousand deer in twentyfive years mean you're either a poacher, a liar, or you work at a meat packing plant that handles deer for hunters who don't dress their own (and even that I find unbelieveable).
Because they were born without them?
ten points
The other people are just dumb. Deer with kidneys... ludicrous!!! You have shot close to 40 deer a year what do they know? Oh sure, maybe basic biology and addition. I say biology schmiology books and facts are for dorks
According to you they don't, but according to them they do.*
White-tailed deer do have kidneys. It's possible they are in a different location than you are used to, or are a different color.
Those aren't kidneys, guys. Those are 'run faster and jump like crazy' glands.
40 deer a year? What're you doing with all them? And how'd you end up with so many tags?
You must live in one of those states without a DNR or hunting laws.
But when you shoot a deer, it gets extremely surprised, and will usually have an enormous adrenaline rush. This will cause the kidney's to 'wilt' from the muscle contractions, where they will be forced down the urethral tubes and into the bladder. If you do find the kidney's, you're not shooting the deer hard enough, and your an unethical hunter. Having dressed that many deer and never having seen the kidneys, I'll bet you're a really amazing shot, and are extremely lethal.
its caused by a hormone imbalance, deer kidneys are invisible to people who masterbate too much.
Like I told you the first time you posted this Whitetail Deer DO HAVE KIDNEY's....One of the MAIN killer diseases of the Whitetail Deer population is ACIDOSIS..,A disease of the KIDNEY's.
Explain to me how they die from this disease if they DON'T have Kidneys? You are making yourself look pretty foolish insisting they don't have them.....Extensive ';experience'; or not!
I find it difficult to believe you have not seen them. Of course deer have kidneys. How in the world would a mammal process and expel fluids without kidneys?
Kidneys are located on the interior of the lower back. About were the loins end. They are usually a little pinkish colored.
As a Pharmacist, I had to take the same physiology classes as Medical Students, and all mammals have kidneys. Without kidneys any mammal will not live a week after birth.
They do have kidneys. They are usually removed with the intestines and bladder.

Any animal that urinates has kidneys. they remove the urea from the blood and it is excreted as urine.
So you've dressed hundreds if not a thousand deer in 25 years of hunting eh? This makes you a liar my friend. Deer have kidneys, 2 of them in each deer, this means you should have seen at least ONE kidney in the hundreds, if not a thousand deer you have supposedly dressed. Consider the odds of coming into direct contact with over 2000 kidneys and never seeing a single one.......
I'll jump on the bandwagon and call you a liar too. There is no way you have dressed that many deer and never seen a kidney. NO ONE likes a liar, NO ONE!
Deer have kidneys, always have, always will.
