How does the Staghorn grow?
This answer assumes that by "staghorn" you mean the antlers of a deer, stag, moose, elk, or caribou, all members of the "deer" family. Deer grow antlers, not true horns like cows. Horns are hollow, and are made of keratin, which is the same substance of which our fingernails are made. Antlers, however, are made of bone. Antlers occur primarily on male animals, but also occur on some females, such as the caribou. The growth of the antler bone is triggered by the length of time there is sunlight in the day. Antler growth is also greatly affected by the animals age, its inherited genetic traits, and by its nutrition. The antlers you see on deer, stags, moose, elk, and caribou are grown and shed all within one year! This is so amazing that scientists have studied antler growth in an effort to learn why some cancers grow so fast.

How long is a deer?
Deer Antler growth usually begins during the month of March or April, by August or early September, antlers are fully-grown. In most cases the typical deer antlers begins growth out of the head in a backward motion, then quickly changes direction and sweeps forward.Deer antlers are among the fastest growing tissues known to man.Growing as much as a ½ inch per day during peak development. The development process can vary greatly depending upon the genes and nutrition of each deer. Growing antlers are covered with a living tissue called velvet. During development, the deer's antlers are very delicate and extremely sensitive to the touch. This is also the time when most antler damage or breakage occurs.Velvet is shed or rubbed off by the buck as he rubs saplings with his antlers. Older bucks will shed their velvet before younger bucks. A buck's first set of antlers begins to grow when it's about 10 months old. Spikes are more common in yearling deer than older ones because antler growth starts at a time when the young buck's body is still growing rapidly. Antler development is tied in closely with the animal's nutritional status. Older bucks might also carry spikes if they come from an area with poor food conditions.

Why do deer go noctu rnal in Wisconsin?
Deer do not "go nocturnal". Deer are nocturnal. You see them at all times of the day for several reasons. Weather may stir them up. Deep snow can force them to spend day time looking for food. They may have been disturbed and are moving around. During the Rut deer are more active during the day. But for all intents and purposes- Deer are nocturnal animals.
How much time does it take a white tale deer to grow antlers?
Antler is not bone but tissue, and is the fastest growing tissue in the world right next to cancerous tissue (I cannot remember which of the two is fastest). White-tailed deer shed their antlers anywhere from January to March (varies slightly by region; I am in New England area). From the time they fall off they start growing again and are full size by mid-August. Throughout the growing process the antlers have been covered in a furry skin called velvet. The velvet has blood circulating through it, bringing nutrients to the growing antlers. In mid-August the velvet is pinched off at the base (burr) of the antler and the blood no longer enters the area, causing the velvet to shrink and dry up and fall off. I think I remember some deer biologists saying that antler can grow and inch or 2 per day. Look for books by either Leonard Lee Rue III or Dr. James C. Kroll for everything you could possibly want to know about deer.
