Where's the Momma?
Do antelope abandon their young like whitetails will if you contaminate them with human scent?

nope.....

Whitetails don't either...

My wife and I seen a whitetail yesterday while riding in a combine cutting wheat yesterday that was about the same size. It seems a little late for a fawn to be born around here.

There's no telling. Doe antelope have to rank as the worst mothers.

You be one of the good guys here Huntsman.
I'd bet them some fine boys right there.

Nice pics.

Once they stash their babies, antelope mamas can roam quite a ways.

I'd be giving them babies of their own!
Great Pics there Huntsman22.

It is a great time of year to watch all the critters doing their thing. Watching all the little ones running,bucking and playing all over the place is always a good time.

That reminds me that I need to put some more "skeeter" spray in my truck.
Posted By: huntsman22 Re: couple of babes...... - 06/11/12
We haven't had a single skeeter yet this year. As dry as I've ever seen it, and so windy that even if a skeeter hatches, he'll just blow away......

Another baby pic. I had to get in on it, too....

Yes, a great season to be out. The wife and I did about 1.5 cords of western larch yesterday. We saw 3 pronghorn does with each trailing twins, 1 turkey, about 4 deer but no fawns visible, and a blond bear.
Posted By: TRnCO Re: couple of babes...... - 06/11/12
pretty cool Don. A couple of years ago a buddy of mine and I were slayin' pdogs when this doe antelope came wondering right through the town that we were shootin', and collected her kid and off they went. I then got to lookin' a little closer across the town and spotted 3 other fawns that were still laying amongst the prairie dog mounds. Who knows where thier mothers were at.
The we decided to move a bit for some fresh action and we dang near drove over another fawn. Took pics. of it from the truck. We had the truck with-in about 15' of it, and it never flinched.
