Dakota Gray Ghost Chapter of the Mule Deer Foundation

03/29/2026

Each year, mule deer antlers fall off naturally during the winter months to help conserve energy for winter survival. In light or mild winters, mule deer often hold onto their antlers longer than they do during harsh winters. New antler growth begins within days or weeks after shedding.

Do you know how long it takes to grow a full rack? Leave us your guesses in the comments!
