johnf Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Re: Would you still kill a doe? We have a pretty big doe population here. In the area I hunt it's about 4 to 1 in other places around it's as many as 10 or 12 to 1. The rut was in late Nov.- early Dec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you shoot a doe at any point, you are taking out potentially more than one deer. I don't get too stressed out about shooting a pregnant doe. Matter of fact, I have collected a fetus or two, stained the bones with Alizarin Red S, stained the cartliage with Alcian Blue, cleared the tissue with potassium hydroxide and embedded it in polyester resin to make paper weights. It makes for quite the conversation piece sitting on my desk at work. This fetus harvested about two months post rut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VtBowhunter Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Re: Would you still kill a doe? A doe may be born with every egg she'll ever ovulate, but they aren't fertilized yet, so there is a huge difference. Dude, you're one morbid individual.
