Two bucks go viral tossing each other around in the woods during brawl at Redwood National Park

Translate

Part of getting out in nature is witnessing some nature. A group of people in Redwood National Park had a front row seat to some nature when a couple of bucks smashing antlers came tumbling down the side of a hill.

The hikers were "just exploring the Redwood forest" when the nature arrived. After sliding across the boardwalk, the two deer resumed their battle just a few feet away from the group, who, let's be honest, were way too close for comfort.

The deer tossed each other around the woods a little, you know classic rutting season behavior, before launching each other over the side of another small hill. The commentary on this now-viral battle is amazing.

The only thing better than the up-close and personal battle, and the play-by-play that accompanied it, is the comment section on the Instagram post.

Here we are being sucked back in by technology while trying to enjoy nature. It just goes to show you that not all technology is bad.

A place where you can weigh in with thoughts like "Shoulda started taking bets on the trail. Missed opportunity" still has some value.

Where else would we go for the delicate balance of slightly useful information and smart ass responses? Enjoy:

  • They aren’t playing eh- trying to kill eachother actually. These are antlers, not horns. Lastly, this is what men do for women in the bush eh- test of manhood.
  • Whomever said "they’re just playing" at the end of the video dead ass wrong
  • Fightin’ over west coast chicks.
  • And nobody shouted "WORLDSTAR". Guess I’m a certified oldhead
  • It’s called rutt it’s mating season

  • "Are they gonna hurt each other" I fear that's the point of this
  • Hypothetically speaking if you had a knife on you and it was in season/ you had a tag/ in a legal place could you just shank one?
  • They aren’t fighting they try to Kiss
