No. A buck will gather a harem of 6 to 20 females, depend how many does are in the buck's territory, and stay with them for a few months, first courting them and then mating with them. Once the breeding season is over, the buck and does go their separate ways. Often the does stay together while the buck goes off on his own, or joins a bachelor herd of other bucks.
