Deer defend hemselves by kicking. They are very muscular and a kick from one can break a bone. The hooves are not sharp but can caus a serious cut. Ihave witnssd Deer standig on their hind legs and lashing out at predators to fendt hem off. Bucks will usetheir antlers to fight off a predator. I have witnessed them fighting each other during the rut but have never witnessed them fighting off a predator. I have however-been charged by a Buck with his head down so I assume they use them against other predators. Given the chance- deer simply run. They are very fast an agile and can outrun most predators. Iwould say that that is their biggest defense.
