[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1381480, member: 7123"] I really don't see how deer make a living sometimes - 9 out of 10 acorns in the woods I pick up and bite into are "rotten", with a #@#% grub in it. What are these, how common, and do the deer eat these rotten ones anyway, grub and all? Is it the case that deer are able to eat of lot of the acorns when they first fall, before the insects invade them? Or do the insects invade the acorn and plant the grub while the acorn is still up in the tree, before the deer can eat them? Is it like this everywhere? I guess if the deer eat them anyway, they're getting their protein requirement from the grub... ?? Same goes for pecans, but only about 1/2 to 2/3rds of the pecans seem to be ruined by some kind of damned insect. [/QUOTE]
