Rudolph is Female?

I have two very important reasons for blogging about this story. First, my fellow blogger is somone who appreciates hunting and secondly because it's very interesting. A West Virginia hunter, recently taking down a deer, was shocked to find out the animal, complete with antlers, was female. Mills took the deer to local wildlife folks and they confirmed his findings. They told him it's very rare but it does happen.
It's unreal. I didn't realize what I killed. When I reached down to gut it, I pulled my knife out and saw it was a doe. Well, I got real excited and dragged it by its horns, and got my neighbor Russell Harvey to help me put it in my truck. I've hunted for 50 years, and this is the first I've ever seen or heard of it.
