Just caught the end of Deer and Deer Hunting tv show. I heard the last part: the shows host talks of a doe breeding and birthing twins sired by different bucks. This is news to Me. Is there any information available on this? any help would be helpful.

Yes, the scientific literature indicates that around 22-24% of white-tailed twins are sired by different males. If you are interested in the articles, I can direct you to those.
