        Jaw looks young but I have seen KNOWN 5.5 year olds look exactly like that.. It is a guess at best. What did his body/head look like?

          Dentine on #4 not as wide or wider than enamel that surrounds it, so teeth say 2 yrs.

            Was the known 5 yr old captured, wild, and ear tagged as a fawn?

                tooth aging isn't perfect but if you brought that to me i'd say 3.5 all day

                i think most deer wear their teeth pretty reliably but if you are losing your mind over it pull the front incisors and send them in

                We are experts in deer aging. Call (512) 756-1989 for accurate and verifiable forensic cementum annuli deer aging. Wildlife Analytical Labs has been getting it right since 2004.

                  Somehow I only see that guy on teeth aging threads. I killed one that was 7+ this year with the teeth of a 4 year old. It’s a guess at best.

                    He is a "biologist".. Educated I think. I do not trust books.

                        The teeth show at least 3, if not 4. Definitely NOT 2. And don’t waste your $$ sending the teeth in to have them cut. It’s no more accurate than a guess.

                        Don’t worry AT ALL what the teeth show. It is a horribly inaccurate way to age deer. I don’t care what any book says or what any person says. The most accurate way is to have history with that deer and deer herd. If you don’t have that then it’s just a guess that you have to base on body characteristics, attitude around other bucks, ect. But not the teeth.

                              The truth right here.
