Caribou

Caribous keep warm by :It has a special doublethink fur coat to keep the body heat in and the cold air out. In the water the coat keeps the water out like a bathing suit. Like a shield the fur works to keep the snow and water out keep the caribou dry in side. The velvet on the caribous antlers keep the antlers warm inside.

If it's a white-tailed deer, which is the type most people see and think of, it's called a fawn. If it's a red deer, the baby is called a calf.

The lawful definition of poaching is "trespassing while taking game". The state is assuming ownership of all land and all game. when it tells its citizens to acquire a permit it is assuming that taking game is illegal( the state owns all game) and must be permitted by the establishment. some people feel that the state has no right to dictate to them if and when one can feed themselves. so poaching is the act of resisting the states mandates. kind of like tax evasive activities like making moonshine and doing business in cash. poachers do not live in the kings forest and therefore do not need the kings permission. Poachers will take game when and where they like. Funny thing is , besides a fine, one of the punishments of hunting without a license is loss of permission to hunt. this of course means nothing to the poacher.

Tundra.

The arctic tundra in the summer and then they migrate to the Boreal Forest in the winter.

I don't know how old you are but a great, great youth gun is a .243 it has very little recoil and is very flat shooting. I have a Browning lever-action. I have takin three deer with it and had no problems what-so-ever. Hope it helped!

Yes, all deer shed their antlers. Male deer grow and shed their antlers every year. Antlers are composed of true bone. Antler growth begins in late March or early April and the growing bone is covered by skin with numerous blood vessels (velvet). In late summer and early fall, testosterone levels increase. This hormone elevation results in the antlers hardening and the buck rubs off the drying velvet. When testosterone levels begin to drop, antlers start to shed beginning in mid January. Deer that are in the best physical condition will lose their antlers later in the winter.

The entire shedding process takes a mere two to three weeks to complete, and the re-growth phase takes place over the summer. The docile male deer that, with the exception of the male and the female reindeer, solely sports antlers, sheds them between January and April, after the autumn mating season draws to a close. He can do without antlers at this time, because his need for them in prior months, to attract and to impress females for his harem of mates, and to fight with his competitors for the females' affections, no longer exists.

However, female Caribou also have antlers, as the male Caribou do, but the female do not shed their antlers every year.

they are both deer because deer is a generic term there are many types of deer so a reindeer is one of them, and that Santa's magic makes them fly

I believe in the Canada/ Alaska area.

The largest is and was Goliath, who is not eligible for the Boone and Crockett record book because he was a captive deer.

Deer are herbivores meaning they eat vegetation. Deer eat hibiscus, acorns, seeds, fruits, grass, plants, twigs, bushes and leaves.

Male Caribou have two large horns next to their ears on either side of their head they are generally 2.8 t 4.9 feet at shoulder and they have a brown coat of fur surrounding their body for warmth.

Caribou. Reindeer are what North Americans typically refer to as the the smaller, more domesticated subspecies of the caribou raised in herds in the Hinterlands of Finland, Sweden and Norway, with a few small herds raised in the non-Arctic areas (well south of the tundra and the Arctic Circle) of Canada and the US.

In Southern states where the average size of White-tailed deer is under 150 lbs the .243 Caliber is more than adequate to take down a white tailed deer for the average shooter, In the Northern States where deer go over 200lbs sometimes up to 300lbs the .243 round should only be considered by hunters with strong marksmanship skills. the .243 bullet is small and light and has much more potential to remain inside the body cavity of a large bodied northern White-tail deer there for making a blood trail almost impossible to find and follow. Also with the smaller size and weight of the round the initial shock from the impact will be less on a northern white-tail which can easily lead to a longer time to expiration of the target.

A White Tailed Deer uses it's tail to communicate to other deer. White can be seen for long distances in the forest. A raised tail usually signals danger and a deer will usually raise it's tail when running from danger. I have watched deer simply raise their tail to signal to other deer that it is there. When in "heat" a Doe will raise it's tail to signal to a Buck that it is ready to mate. Most often, in this situation, the tail is only raised half way.

Not all deer raise their tail when running. I have watched mature Bucks run with their tail flat against it's rear. I assume this is because the mature Buck does not want to be seen nor is it concerned about warning other deer.

Just the once. They can't be killed again....

The word fawn can apply to very young offspring of some animals and can be used with male or female offspring.

There is no such thing as a "female bull" nor a "male bull" especially in reference to cattle. Bulls are not a species of an animal, rather the name for the gender or sex of an animal, like bovines ("cows" or cattle), whales, moose, elk or bison. Bulls are males whereas cows are females.

UNLESS, however, you are talking about pit bulls, and by "bull" you are using this as a shortened name for such a breed of dog. Therefore, in order to answer your question, a female pit bull is called a bitch, and a male pit bull a dog.

There are records maintained on a state-by-state basis of deer taken by hunters- and typically the numbers are in the hundreds of thousands for each state. The total harvest of deer by hunters in the entire US would be in the millions. In addition, millions of deer die each year due to traffic accidents, disease, predators and starvation- many more than are taken by hunters.

The deer population of my home had increased sharply 3 years ago- with the result that an illness known as Chronic Wasting Disease infected the deer population, and thousands died within a few months.

To previous posters- I would point out that the majority of all funds to manage and improve wildlife come from the fees paid by hunters.

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid Donner (or Donder), Blitzen. Those eight have been pulling Santa's sleigh for about 600 yrars.

Rudolph is a relative newcomer. He's been leading the sleigh since only 1925.

Yes. However, we have only found evidence that juveniles and adults were part of these herds. The hatchlings were probably left to fend for themselves until they grew large enough to keep up with a herd, and also to reach the same food. Some evidence suggests that young sauropods, including diplodocus, ate different foods then the adults. If this is so, it would be very inefficient and detrimental for all of them to travel together because they would need to go to different places for the young the adults to get their food.

It depends on habitat and environmental constraints. Whitetail deer in good habitat with an abundance of quality forage typically have 2-3 fawns that can potentially reach maturity. Having 4 would be extreemly rare but not impossible. It poorer habitat, 1 fawn is more common, with typically a lower recruitment (reaching sexual maturity) rate.

Antlers on deer are bonematerial - During growth they are covered with a skin that helps provide blood and thus nutrients to the antler.

When the antler growth stops due to testosterone-levles rising in the animal, the skin is rubbed off - therewith creating the colorization and "staining" of the antler.

There are a variety of ways to purchase deer. Buy a deer that is already stuffed could cost over $300. Buying deer meet could cost around $3.50 a pound and up. Buying just the antlers could vary on the size of the antlers.

So they can see better at night.
