How many young do roe deer have?
Roe deer typically give birth to one or two fawns in a litter, although twins are more common in areas with abundant food. The fawning season usually occurs in late spring to early summer. The fawns are born with spotted coats that help them camouflage in their surroundings. They are weaned by the age of 2 to 3 months but may stay with their mother for up to a year.
"Deer" is a category of animals, not a single species. Some species (e.g. the White-tailed deer mentioned below and the Mule deer) are classified as "Least Concern" by the IUCR (which is as close as the IUCR ever gets to saying "those things? endangered? don't make me laugh"), though others such as the Hog deer are classified as endangered.
Hunting animals does not mean they are endangered..The whitetailed deer, is more plentiful than ever, with a total North American population of nearly 40 million.
What is the niche of the white tailed deer?
This is a difficult question in terms of how a deer benefits its community. White-tailed deer often live in mixed-forest areas, and feed on a variety of plant material. They do serve as a food source for some larger predators (bears, wolves, etc.), and as a result also benefit scavenger species that rely on carrion as a food source.this is just a few tip about the niche of this

Are there more deer in the US now than there were in 1900?
Yes, there are more deer today than any other time in recorded history. Todays society has directly effected the population explosion due to our own needs to survive. There are large crop fields scattered across the united states which has been responsible for ensuring a meal for a growing herd per state. If not for these crops deer would be left with only what mother nature can provide. Unfortunately, much of the available deer habitat has been replaced with our growing society. SO, If not for us hunters to help keep their numbers in check the problem of over abundance would be more so.
Perhaps there are more today than in 1900. However, the deer's natural diet is not human crops. The reason deer eat human crops is because the crops have been put exactly where deer would normally eat their preferred food. One must not think that the deer population needs to be kept in check because it would expand rapidly. Rather, humans greed for land should be kept in check as the deer has a right to live where it does - the specie has lived there far longer than humans.
They are known as the myth that pulls Santa's sleigh around, but are they real? Yes. To tell the truth I am almost positive they are.

Which rifle should you get for hunting deer Ruger American 30.06 or Ruger Predator 6.5 Creedmoor?
30-06 is capable of taking any game animal in North America. You can find 30-06 in WalMarts, country stores, and any gun shop. Can you find 6.5 Creedmoor ammo in the same places is a good question. The Creedmoor was created as a long range TARGET cartridge, and it does that very well. For deer, I would stick with 30-06, .308, .270, etc. They are, IMHO, better HUNTING cartridges.
