LOOKING AT WILDLIFE
§ How Old Is That Deer? I
By DAVE ALMAND
Extension Wildlife Specialist
University of Georgia
College of Agriculture
Ever wonder how old that
eight-point buck is?
Many people believe that if
a deer has eight points, it’s
eight years old. The reason
being that a deer grows one
point each year. However,
this is not the case. Buck
deer shed their antlers each
year, usually around March,
and grow new ones. Their
next set may have fewer
points or twice the number
as the set they possessed the
previous year.
Os course, it is of Interest
to the hunter to be able to
accurately judge the age of
a deer. It is also a valuable
tool to the wildlife biologist.
By the use of such a tool,
information is obtained con
cerning the age composition
of the local deer population.
Such data, most of which is
obtained through hunter co
operation at checking sta
tions, Indicates the degree of
annual replacement of young
deer. It also Is useful in de
termining the average life
span and the rate of decline
of various age groups over a
period of years. This infor
mation is essential for good
deer management.
For decades man has
known how to judge the age
of domestic livestock by the
replacement and wear of
their teeth. Wildlife biolo
gists have found that deer

to act promptly. Many stains

when fresh are difficult or
impossible to remove later,

three different groups,

stains, and a combination of

can be “aged” the same way.
Research has shown that,
for the purpose of judging
age, deer may be divided into
two major groups: those un
der two years of age, and
those over that age. The de
cisive factor here is the pres
ence or absence of the de
ciduous teeth (similar to
"baby” teeth in humans)
and the degree to which
these teeth have been re
placed by permanent ones.
Age determination of older
deer is more complicated and
is based on teeth wear.
Therefore, as a general
rule, the number of points
has no bearing on the age of
a denr. However, it is gen
erally safe to assume that a
spike buck weighing less
than 120 pounds is about six
months of age. On the other
hand, it’s quite possible for
a deer eight years of age to
also have spikes, particular
ly if sufficient food is lack
ing or if the deer is in poor
condition due to other rea
sons. Most likely those deer
with eight points or more
will be at least two or three
years old.
Areas of the state which
have heavy hunting pressure
usually have a high percent
age of the buck deer popu
lation in the one to two year
old age group. To point this
out, Bill Julian, refuge man
ager of the Piedmont Nation
al Wildlife Refuge located in
Jones and Jasper Counties,
informed me that 79 per
cent of the 130 or so deer
killed on the refuge during
the first part of gun season
this year were less than two
years of age This means
roughly a 50 per cent turn
over or better in the deer
herd due mainly to heavy
pressure. Since only a few
deer are able to reach three
or more years of age in such
areas, we consequently see
fewer of the tremendous
racks as time goes on.
