[QUOTE="AllOut, post: 2327535, member: 12099"] Actually it has nothing to do with the moon. It has to do with daylight hours or lack there of. The Photoperiod.... In the fall when daylight hours start to get shorter it triggers the testosterone levels to raise in bucks harndening their horns. Later in the year when daylight gets below a certain amount it triggers the doe to come in to estrus. The amount of daylight that enters through the eyes triggers the Pituitary Gland to send out the release of hormones. Alschsimer's studies produced his theory but there was never any proof or evidence to support it. The Photoperiod theory is proven and replicable. Photoperiod is the exact same every year. It's also why the closer to the equator the later in the year the rut is. Like in Meixco it's not til mid December, cause the daylight hours don't change enough til later in the year. That being said, the moon is the same there as it is here. So it obviously has no affect on it. [/QUOTE]
