Usually happened with does that I couldn't shoot. When the kids were young, we/they had a favorite stand that got used more than it should. The resident does would often approach, sniff, snort massively, and circle the blind. One day Daughter said "Dad, can I shoot that old bitty so she doesn't scare the bucks?". When antlerless season opened, that's exactly what we did. Every doe that 'snorted' us got shot until we ran out of tags.
