Best Answer

Deer actually move at fairly regular intervals day or night. They may be slightly more active at night, especially during hunting seasons, but are not truly nocturnal so do not as a rule move more at night than during the day. An adult deer will remain in close proximity to food and water, moving only when they feel threatened or when seeking better grazing or watering opportunities, or when seeking a mate when in season. Fawns and yearlings remain in close proximity to their mothers so move when they do.

they eat when ever they feel like it ... A deer mostlyhunts for food during the night because there are more animlas that are active at night.

Wolves hunt during the whole day, not by certain times. And they also hunt to feed themselves, so they don't over hunt.

both. Eagles are generally day time hunters that use their vision to hunt, but given the opportunity may hunt at night as well.

Why do white tailed deers have hooves?

White-tailed deer have white undersides on their tail so when they are alarmed or in danger their tail is held up as they run. The white patch on the tail signals other deer like a flag that there is danger in that area. When a large herd of deer move during the day they will be in sight of each other, yet spread out. As night falls the deer will form into single file, nose to tail and move together by following the white tail that is in front of them.
