Why Sambar Stags Rub Their Antlers on Trees It’s not random. When a sambar stag rubs a tree, he’s doing a few important things: Stripping velvet – As the velvet dies off, rubbing helps clean their antlers and get them ready for the rut. Building strength – All that pushing and thrashing toughens their neck and shoulders for the fights ahead. Leaving scent – Stags have scent glands on their face. When they rub, they’re marking their territory so other deer know who’s around. Signposting dominance

Big Sambar stag. This one passed my camera 2 days before the one I shared earlier. This is a much bigger and healthier looking stag. How big do you think it is? #sambar #sambardeer #sambarstag | Robbie Alexander Photography and Fishing
