Antlers are generally only found on male deer in other species of deer. Females with higher-than-normal testosterone levels, on the other hand, can grow antlers.

<h3>Why Do Deer Grow Antlers?</h3>

Antlers are grown by male deer to lure female deer for mating. Females will be shown a display as the antlers are developing during mating season, with each male attempting to become the most dominating.

Deer utilize their antlers to protect themselves from predators and other deer. When deer attack each other, their antlers might lock together, forcing the deer to starve to death.

Why are shellfish population often a good indicator of water quality
Pachacha [2.7K]
"Water quality" may include the amounts of dissolved oxygen and the levels of algal growth, pollutants which may be present and the pH level. Water quality effects also which types of organisms can survive in a body of water.
 Shellfish require a high level of dissolved oxygen and their abundance is an indication of good water quality. Shellfish are sensitive to changes in the ecosystem and they cannot easily escape changes in the water quality. These are one of the reasons why shellfish are good indicators of water quality.
