"While working on a piece about the 20th anniversary of the Red Bench Fire in Glacier National Park, I came upon this doe. She was curious and in a split second, she licked her lips and bent her ear forward like a dog. I've seen plenty of whitetail deer ears on full alert bend backwards, but the forward curl is a new, and very fun, thing"

I have a buck in here now that has a broken cartilage like that.  The really can't bend the ears forward (it's the ear butt that moves it forward) since there's no muscle structure there to make that happen. It is a neat picture.

That would make more sense. I guess the momentum from her flicking her ear forward, causes the 'broken' part to fall forwards.
