Flehmen is what a male mammal does to check if a female is reseptive. They capture some scent in what I believe is called the jacobsons organ. Cats and ungulates(spelling) have great facial expressions while doing this. Bob C
That clears things up... thanks John and Bob
Joe,
I hope you don't stop asking questions because you are affraid of what others might say. The flehmen position is a natural facial expression. It is different from an open mouth. The nose of the deer usually flattens and goes back towards the eyes with wrinkles occuring behind the nose. The lower lip usually opens up and drops forward. The McKenzie cataloge has a good picture of this on page 304. Good Luck!
