White-Tailed Deer

White-tailed deer like to forage for mast such as acorns from the trees in hardwood forests. These shy herbivores also eat leaves, twigs, stems, flowers, fruits and mushrooms, browsing in open areas near mature forests, where they can seek refuge at the first sign of danger. They consume about 3% of their body weight every day and their antlers can grow as fast as ¼ inch per-day!
