13 MPH swimming is near impossible to believe. I know they are decent swimmers and will go a long distance. Some good videos posted here on TFF. However, the world record for human males swimming is about 4 mph and that's a diving start and kicking off the wall. Heck, a 4 minute mile running is just 15 mph.

7)C-40 40% of yearling doe get bred. In my 22 yrs of keeping records I have never found over 18% bred in a season. Average was around 15% for the years I had enough to check at harvest. I think some of your answers are based off of northern deer herds and not WT deer in general.
I would also have to agree with Rob Lay on the swimming speed. I have video of a group of bucks chasing a doe and she hits the water in a pond and one bucks swims after her for 6-7 minutes. She was trying to stay ahead of him and did so but not at 13 mph.

Well you did not ask what the record speed was so your answers you selected would be wrong since your link said average was 10mph.

the swimming doesn't matter where the deer is from, just stupid if you believe it, do the math yourself, don't rely on what you hear.
