Strange antler growth.  I think I would shoot it.

I did a google...

One article said damage to the rack during the velvet growth phase would likely grow back natural next year.

Whereas damage to the pedicle would likely cause deformed growth every year.  That looked like a problem at the base.

Poor little guy.

If the Does don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Maybe that's a plastic prosthetic antler, and it just got too warm in the sun....   Hope it doesn't embarrass him, it appears to be doing just that to this pup. Glenn's been called lop-eared before, I know..... :rotflmao:
