I don't believe this myself but I got pictures to prove it. There was 2 bucks chasing a doe all over my backyard, and neighbors yard. We watched them for about 45 minutes and they were trying to mount the doe, but she wasn't having nothing to do with it. One of the bucks actually still has a rack.
This is the latest I have ever seen anything like that. I have seen them chasing in early February a few years back.
Has anyone else seen anything like this, this late in the year?

I have. If a doe doesn't get settled, Mother Nature will take care of it.

I've noticed late rut activity this year also. A few weeks ago I saw two small bucks chasing a doe on the hillside at work. I got trail camera pictures of a buck working a scrape at the end of January.
I seen a Doe coming out of the woods the other day that looked all frazeled and worn out. She did not see me as I was behind a tree, as she walked past I herd her say, I'll never do that for two bucks again.
