Picked the thread title as I normally find "And that's when the fight started..." jokes humorous. That shared, honestly DON'T know why the fight started, making the footage even more intriguing.
Spot where the camera captured the fight is a travel trail and has no bait, minerals, or much in the way of natural forage to fight over. As the video shows, few does simply moving by the camera... and about a single minute later, it looks like some small buck entered the equation and an older nanny doe wasn't the least happy about it.
Anybody else wish to chime in on what they might think happened, be interested in hearing it! Have caught bucks sparring many times on camera, and does doing lighter "fist" swinging to one another to move each other away from desired food or minerals, but first time I've captured quite as seemingly-serious a "fist fight!"
