Video: Trail Cam Timeline of Antlers Dropping (Ottawa)

[Justin Hoffman]

Hello All,

The buck named 'One Side' is now naked on top, shedding his left antler on January 17 and the right between then and the 25th. Both are undoubtedly buried, as we had 18 inches of snow fall the same day he dropped his first one, and few more inches the next day.
Did a few searches around likely spots, including his usual trails and bedding areas, but came up empty handed. See what the spring thaw uncovers...



Cheers,
Justin

The piles are fresh cedar boughs, a staple food for whitetail during the winter months. Problem is, they love it so much, that much of it has been browsed too high for them to reach.
I put down a pile at each of the trail cams during December and January, usually every 3 or 4 days when swapping cards.

Cheers!
