Is it a myth? GPS Data Reveals Whether bucks use WIND DIRECTION to Travel! *You may be Surprised*

Do bucks REALLY use wind direction as they travel? If so, do they walk with the wind to their face, to their back, or a crosswind? We asked Dr. Brsonson Strickland of Mississippi State Universities Deer Lab, who looked into this question using years of GPS collar studies on wild deer in Mississippi. Subjects:

Using GPS collar data to see how bucks use the wind to move from their afternoon bedding location

Does a Buck use a head wind, tail wind or cross wind most of the time when moving?

Study shows bucks using wind direction two different ways to move with an even 50/50 split

How do thermals, terrain and habitat affect buck movement
