Average shoulder-height for a white tail is three to four feet tall, rarely up to five. Even more rarely do white-tails ever get much taller than five feet, even with the big bucks.

I think you call a female deer a doe.

A female goat is a nanny

The major predator of deer is man, and then depending on where you are and what is around, coyotes, mountain lions, wolves.
Deer's are primarily herbivores making themselves rather susceptible to predators. The way they protect themselves is their ears, for hearing, and legs, strong legs, to assure ability to dash from their predators to assure they will not be prey.

Only the male ones not the does....

It is very rare but yes. In 30 years of hunting I have only seen it once. During a spring Turkey hunt I sat in a hollowed out stump and watched a Doe deliver three fawns. It was a once in a lifetime thing to see just one fawn born. To see triplets was amazing.

Yes it is because....,

Yes, a .308 Winchester is legal for deer hunting in Indiana. The state allows the use of centerfire rifles for deer hunting, and the .308 meets the necessary caliber and cartridge specifications. Hunters should always check for any specific regulations or updates before their hunting season to ensure compliance.

Yes, deer can experience miscarriages, which occur when a developing fetus is lost before it can be born. Various factors, such as stress, disease, nutritional deficiencies, or environmental conditions, can contribute to this occurrence. While not common, miscarriages can impact population dynamics, particularly in areas where deer face significant environmental stressors. Overall, like many mammals, deer are susceptible to reproductive challenges.

A deer carcass refers to the body of a deer that has died, typically as a result of hunting, vehicle collision, or natural causes. It can be found in the wild or on roads and may pose hazards to drivers. The decomposition process of a deer carcass is important for the ecosystem, as it provides nutrients to the soil and food for scavengers. Proper disposal is essential to prevent disease and contamination in the surrounding area.

Dogs are often fed a meat-based diet because they are primarily carnivorous animals, evolved from wolves, which thrive on protein-rich foods. Meat provides essential nutrients, including amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that support their health and energy needs. However, many modern dog foods also include grains and vegetables to offer a balanced diet, as dogs can digest a variety of foods. It's essential to tailor a dog's diet to their specific needs, considering factors like age, breed, and health.

Deer have several natural defenses against predators, including their keen senses of sight, smell, and hearing, which help them detect threats early. Their agility and speed allow them to flee quickly when danger approaches. Additionally, their ability to blend into their environment through camouflage offers some protection from being spotted by predators. Social behaviors, such as living in groups, also enhance their safety by providing more eyes to watch for danger.

No, deer antlers are not abiotic; they are biotic structures. Antlers are made of bone and grow from the living tissue of the deer, specifically from the skull. They are shed and regrown annually, reflecting the biological processes of growth and regeneration in the animal.

It's the pheromone levels in the urine that is what attracts a mate. A buck can smell if a doe is in heat or not by sniffing her urine.
