Info from Licensor: "The rutting season in the UK occurs in September and October. The red deer often rake the bracken with their antlers as having a huge ball of foliage stuck between your antlers looks very intimidating to another stag where size definitely matters. This juvenile is just practicing for the day when he enters the gene pool wars in earnest."
