Eric, looks like he knows the difference between a deer and a warthog too.  ;D
 The 3D targets in my yard have become bird and chipmunk condos.

That’s what my son said Pat.

It’s very interesting. I also have a very beat up buck 3-d target I put in my neglected food plot. It was a very small plot and the deer ate it to the ground. I did have a trail camera there for awhile though. It was very interesting watching how the deer reacted to it. The does would sniff its rear end. Early before the bucks developed their antlers they were fine with it. Later they tried to spar with it. After I took the trail camera down they knocked its head off. Deer would seem very comfortable by it and lay down right alongside it.

Pat B:
I went to an trad archery tournament in West Virginia(ETAR I think) years ago. The night before the tournament was to start a marauding bear went through the course and destroyed quite a few of the 3D targets. Made for an interesting shoot. 

bjrogg:
Yes there are some very entertaining you tube videos of 3-d targets and animals.

Fortunately I don’t have any animals that totally destroy my target so far. Most had love on their minds, not hunger.lol

BrianS:
Seen the same thing happen to our 3d targets at the archery club.

WhistlingBadger:
I've had similar experiences.  Once I caught a medium-sized whitetail trying to get my buck target to spar with him.  Another time we were camping up on the mountain when a dow wandered through our camp.  She spotted the doe target lying on the ground about the same time she heard us moving around.  She would take off a little way, then turn around and grunt at the target ("Come ON!  Don't you hear those people?"), snort, stomp her foot, repeat.  She did this several times before she finally took off for good.  it was pretty funny.
