Yellow perch and walleye are more closely related to each other than to deer, as both belong to the class Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes) within the order Perciformes. They share a more recent common ancestor compared to deer, which are mammals belonging to the order Artiodactyla. Therefore, while all three species share some distant evolutionary connections, the genetic similarities between yellow perch and walleye are significantly greater than those with deer.
