5 Interesting Facts About Deer!

  • Male deer (called stags or bucks) grow a new set of antlers every single year - they're the fastest growing tissue of any mammal, growing up to 2.5cm per day at peak growth.
  • Deer can run at up to 48km/h and leap up to 3 metres high and 9 metres in length - making them surprisingly athletic for such elegant-looking animals.
  • Fawns are born with white spots that help camouflage them in dappled forest light - the spots fade after a few months as the fawn grows older.
  • Deer have a four-chambered stomach and chew their cud like cows - they eat quickly, then find a safe spot to lie down and re-chew their food more thoroughly.
  • A deer's eyes are positioned on the sides of its head, giving it a nearly 310-degree field of vision - ideal for spotting predators approaching from almost any direction.
