A pillar in whitetail conservation, Dr. Bronson Strickland, joins the show for a deep dive discussion into the breeding season.  Dr. Strickland is a professor at MSU and a host of the Deer University Podcast.  He graduated from UGA with a bachelor's in forest resources, master's from Texas A&M - Kingsville and a doctorate degree from MSU.  I love these discussions on deer biology and behavior.  
Topics include:
1.  Buck bedding habits. 
2.  How detrimental are prolonged breeding seasons (unbalanced sex ratios) to a bucks health and future antler development. 
3.  Fawns who hit a heat cycle……..pros & cons.
4.  Receptive doe discussion……
5.  Buck movement in high density areas. 
6.  Doe group movement during the rut.....feeding habit changes?  
7.  Doe calls / sounds during breeding season.  When and why.
8.  Buck grunts / sounds…..how, when, why…..
9.  Rattling.....
