A love-struck buck ran out of luck a week ago.
The seven-point buck was killed when it rammed a 640-pound concrete statue of an elk in the backyard of Mark and Carol Brye's home in rural Viroqua, Wis.
Bucks often fight during the breeding season, commonly called the rut. Dominant bucks defend breeding territories and female deer by sparring with subordinate bucks. Antler battles sometimes result in the death of one or both deer, but usually end with the biggest buck winning and the smaller buck high-tailing it out to another area.
Mark Brye, who owns Brye Plumbing in Viroqua, was still laughing about the suicidal buck he found near his elk statue last week.

There's a whole series of pics of this moose leading up to his "mounting"...
They're in this photobucket folder, in reverse order, unfortunately starting on page 2.

Was he Bucking a trend? No. But the owner of the lawn ornament was able to sell it cheaply. It was under a buck.

Looks like he killed the elk.
To: silverleaf
According to witnesses, the deer yelled “Allah Akbar” as he made his fateful charge.
