These bucks are about of equal size, which causes the deadliest fights and injuries.
This is how eye injuries are caused.
This buck took a break from fighting when the little girl came outside to play. He walked right up to her and they touched. This is a good comparsion photo to show how small a Key deer actually is.
He then went right back to sparring.
The antler is penetrating through the skin of the other deer. I did not notice this at first. Although they appear innocent and reminescent of Bambi, they are wild animals, even if they do walk up to little girls to say hello.
