What is a Deer?

A deer is a graceful, plant-eating mammal that lives in forests, grasslands, and even snowy mountains all around the world. Most deer are known for their antlers, which grow on males and are made of bone. These antlers fall off and grow back each year. Deer have soft fur that helps keep them warm, and their coloring often helps them blend into the wild. They are very quiet and alert, with big eyes and ears that help them sense danger. Deer usually live in groups and communicate with each other using snorts, bleats, and stomping feet. They eat grass, leaves, twigs, and fruit. Depending on the species, deer can weigh anywhere from 30 to 300 kilograms and can live up to 15 years in the wild. They are gentle, fast runners who leap and bound with amazing speed and elegance.
