Whitetail Buck SHEDS Antler on Trail Cam Video (RARE CAPTURE!)
A whitetail deer buck I named 'One Side' shed his left antler in front of my trail cam Jan. 7/2021. Capturing a whitetail deer shedding an antler on video is very rare, so I am pretty pumped!
Looks like only a few people have ever captured the process of a whitetail deer buck shedding an antler on video, and in my case, a trail cam video. Definitely the highlight of my trail cam and shed hunting 'career.'
Why do whitetail deer bucks shed their antlers? It's due to a drop in testosterone following the rut. When a buck's testosterone levels fall, it causes a weakening in the tissue and bone at the antler base (pedicle) to the point where the antlers simply fall off. Here in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, the antlers shed in January and February.
This whitetail deer buck broke off his right antler in July during the velvet stage when I first captured him on a trail camera video. Since then I have been photographing and gathering footage of him, with the hope that I would find his remaining antler when it shed. Little did I know he would shake it loose right in front of my trail camera.
There's something cool about watching a deer shedding antlers. Make sure you have your volume on and listen for that 'snap'!
