Does anybody know????

Why does have triplets? Is is genetic or nutrition-related or what? Have seen more triplets in the last few years. Just curious.

Watch the Discovery Channel Doug, maybe that will help show yah the mating rituals of whitetails. I'm pretty sure that's how they get er done

Otherwise, age, genetics and nutrition all would contribute to a doe having triplets

Genetics is the main reason. However, as Liv mentions, age and nutrition can have some affect. An old, immature or unhealthy doe is less likely to have triplets, let alone any fawn. However, even the healthiest doe is unlikely to have triplets if it isn't in her genetics.
