*** About White-tailed Deer: White-tailed Deer, known scientifically as Odocoileus virginianus, are highly adaptable creatures found across much of North America. From the dense forests of Canada to the swamps of Florida, they thrive in a variety of habitats. These deer are recognizable by their distinctive tail coloration which, when raised, shows its namesake white underside. Primarily herbivores, their diet consists of leaves, twigs, fruits, and flowers. They are also a crucial part of their ecosystem, influencing vegetation patterns and providing prey for large predators. This interaction between their presence and the environment is fundamental to maintaining ecological balances.
