FUZZY NUBBINS

FUZZY NUBBINS are a common sight this time of year as antler-touting wildlife begin a new season of growth. The velvet is actually skin that nourishes antlers, which are the fastest growing tissue in the entire animal kingdom, according to scientists at the Smithsonian. They also state that with proper nutrition, whitetail deer antlers can grow up to three-quarters of an inch a day.
