dc.description.abstractRoe deer (Capreolus capreolus) is a common sight in the forests, bringing joy to nature lovers. Like all wild animals they also have their own unique characteristics and anomalies that can cause amazement and confusion. Although there are well-documented problems related to the growth, replacement and regeneration of antlers in male specimens, there are few known documented cases of animals with three antlers. In this study, we present photographic material and information about three cases in Bulgaria, where three-antlered roe deer bucks have been observed. This unusual phenomenon raises many questions and stimulates interest in further studies and observations in order to establish the causes of this anomaly.
