Young buck gets ragdolled and tossed in the air during battle with larger buck caught on trail cam

This is about as one-sided of a fight as you’re ever going to see. It’s like the younger brother going after the older brother to see where he stands. It’s Mike Tyson in his prime walking through opponents seconds into a bout.

The trail cam footage starts off with a spike, for reasons only he can answer, lunging towards a bigger buck in the woods and immediately finding out that doing so was a bad idea.

The young buck is lifted off the ground, ragdolled and tossed in the air like he weighs nothing. After being dominated in short order, the young buck impressively manages to land on his feet following the brief battle.

Wisely, the smaller deer then decides he’s had enough and makes a run for it with the bigger and stronger buck giving chase. Here’s the fight. Don’t blink, you might miss it.

Without knowing for sure if any insults were tossed around about the other deer’s momma, I can only speculate that rutting season played a part in this fight. The young buck, possibly horned up, was stepping into the wrong territory.

He had to be shown who was boss, and that all the ladies in the area were spoken for. It’s part of nature. A part that you really don’t want to get in the middle of.

I’m no expert on deer by any means, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say that the spike is going to hit the gym, grab some supplements and work the heavy bag before he tries his luck with this buck again.

You have to turn being lifted off the ground and spun around in the air into a motivator. You can’t have too many of those losses under your belt. Especially not in front of any doe.
