White Tailed Deer start to produce fawns in their 2nd or 3rd year

For the average deer, they usually grow up to 6 years.For the deers in captivity they usually grow up to 20 years.
well, I know that the state bug is a ladybug, and the state symbol is the old man of the mountain. Also one of the animals for it is the white tailed deer.
the white tail deer is not endangered. The white tail deer population has gone up so fast hunters have a hard time to keep up with them. The population has gone up alot. In Nebraska there use to be only 300 to 500 deer in the 60s now there is 300,000 to 500,000 thousand deer. Although that may be true, Im doing a report and i searched that they are becoming endangered because their loss of habitat. Also due to human killing and dogs.There are more but your gunna call me a ten your old girl nerd. >:D
its a little undecided since there was a vote between white tailed deer, some kind of wolf, or the gofer, and wolf won but the white tailed deer is most likely it. there was also an old document electing the wood tick as it but i don't think that's right either. im from so cal! any minnesotans wanna help me out with this? haha
I believe it was a North American White Tail deer raised in captivity in Texas and later transfered to Ohio. It scored 376 at four years old, but rumor has it that at 5 years old it scored over 400.
First ,when it is born it is called a fawn or a baby. Then it turns into a yearly or one year old then it turns into a doe or buck or adult deer.
A fawn is a young deer typically just born to 6 months old these have white spots on them, a yearling is around a year old and a lot bigger and these have out grown there white spots
there are about 500,000 deer left in the U.S. Most deer live to be about 10 years old in the wild, but 20 years in captivity. A deer can have any where from 1 to 4 babies at a time.
the mother will stay with the young deer until it is approximately 1 yr. old some times longer. The young deer gets milk from it's mother at first and gradually learns what and how to eat by observing it's mother.
No. White-tailed deer bucks usually will grow out of their "cow horns" (also known as spikes) when they get in their second and third consecutive years. Often spikes occur in young bucks that are only a year old, (though genetics and nutrition have been known to play a factor in how large the antlers of such a species of deer get), and as they get older, they get bigger, more branching antlers. However, there have been stories of old bucks past their prime getting nothing but spikes the next year. But that is merely anecdotal, it's unsure whether that may be true in real life or not.
Roe deer reach about six years in the wild.
Fawns start eating grasses a week or so after birth, if not less. They will stay on their mother's milk for a few months (around 3 to 4 months) before being weaned, but continue to stay at their mother's side until they are over a year old.
