Which state has the highest deer population?🦌 #deer #deerhunting

[jerrodhayes]

Ohio Indiana and Illinois might not have over a million, but boy are they some monsters up here.

[CVx]

There are 1.7 million whitetails in my Montana front yard as we speak.

Who else thought the deer in the thumbnail had panties stuck in its antlers?

[edwardlangdon]

Do the list again with deer per acre, or per sq mile.

[boomboom-ouz]

Texas deer the size of fucking Labrador retrievers

[macb]

Deer further north are bigger though, I live in NC some decent bucks but they don’t have to survive through some brutal long winters

[stephenkirkland]

As an Alabama native, I am of the opinion that 75% of the whitetail population are within 5’ of a highway at any given time. If you want to hunt whitetail, bring your truck down, park on the side of the road, sit in the bed of the truck for a few minutes and wait for a Camry or civic to drive by. A family of deer will magically manifest.

In Texas there are a lot of deer but you either have to own land or pay an extremely high fee to lease the land.

OK, guys … I spent WAY too much time on this today, but for all those who were nit-picking, here are the total of Whitetails Per Square Mile for these states.

Mississippi 35.0; Alabama 32.0; Pennsylvania 28.6; Kentucky 24.6; North Carolina 24.4; Wisconsin 23.7; Arkansas 20.7; Missouri 17.6; Michigan 17.5; Texas 11.5

Here are more states for those who were asking: Indiana 22.2; Georgia 17.2; Iowa 12.5; Louisiana 11.3; Kansas 7.9; Florida 7.5; Montana 1.4; Wyoming 0.6; Connecticut 12.8

[Tamde]

Ohio & illinois not on the list but they produce many Booners every year.

[RobertoGarcia-doqo]

Hahahahahahahaha….. this is thee hands down largest pile of crap. TEXAS IS 99% PRIVATE RANCH CRAP at avg $5, 000 for a grandson’s first buck type of deer and $$7, 000 for a good quality Office Wall type of deer wall decor. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT WASTE hard earned money HUNT TEXAS. I live in Texas and I travel to Colorado and New Mexico and my OVER THE COUNTER WALMART DEER TAG PUBLIC LAND Deer are just as big as the Ripping you off TEXAS Whitetail……Save your money stay away from texas

[thecomrade]

You count half of Arkansas deer as Missouri.

[imscaredsomeonesgonnafindthis]

was so waiting for virginia… i literally see 3 deer a day just out and about everywhere i go

[mathewpribek]

Upstate NY has very dense population too

[theoneandonlycarlton]

Who Else Thought That Deer Had Panties On His Antlers 😂HAHAHAHAHA

[scubasteve]

Montana should've been up there. when I was younger I would spend summers with my aunt and uncle there, couldn't go around a corner without seeing several

[Sir_MaxD]

Now do those statistics in relation to the aceradge of the state.

[phillipcotton]

I'm really surprised West Virginia didn't make the list. Never saw so many as I have there.

[Freedomman]

Can confirm, there's an absolute crapload of deer in michigan

[calebleeson]

From a guy in Ohio I was surprised we weren’t on the list. Hell I’ve got a herd of doe living in the neighborhood

[rondoespsych]

Michigan here, knew we'd have a lot 😂 also Texas might have the most, but the state is massive, so relative to their size it's essentially less "dense" with deer.
So... We win 😅
