    Antlers fall off and grow back every year, surgery would be unnecessary. This is illogical.

      Not if the goal is for them to not grow back

        In that case, you would want a antler-preventative, not a removal. They would remove on their own.

      Perhaps the artist meant to imy the surgery is to remove the roots and permanently stop regrowth of antlers.
