Post Biologists study deer reaction to human urine

Petersons Bowhunting -

According to biologist Dr. Karl Miller with the University of Georgia, all animal urines are very complex. Each sample contains hundreds of chemicals related to the physiology and diet of the animal from which it came. Miller attested that there is a chemical difference between the urine of every animal, however, that does not mean that human urine contains anything that will spook a deer any faster than fox or coyote urine.

Human urine does not contain human scent in the way that deer have come to recognize it and associate it with danger, it merely smells as urine, quite possibly no different than a coon or fox and based on recent test, it may be even closer to deer unrine!

A scrape test was performed using doe, buck and human urine. Buck urine got the most positive response; A scrape with doe urine got less attention than one with nothing in it at all and all urines got some amount of positive response.

In conclusion, out of four biologists all felt that human urine would not spook deer! Carry a bottle if ya like but there is no scientific reason for it.

I found this pretty interesting fellers, whats ya'lls T&O's
