Deer
These small ungulate ruminant mammals are found all over the world, from North America to Asia and Europe. These long-legged, finely-boned ruminant animals are highly adapted to woodland terrain.

Is venison sausage safe to eat if unrefrigerated for 24 hours?
No, no meat is safe to eat if left out for 24 hours.
Do deer alert whistles really work?
Short answer is NO. If you can find an insurance company to give you
a discount that would cover the cost...go for it...otherwise check
this evidence:
I think the most telling thing about this topic is that AAA does not
even mention them as a way of controlling animal/car collisions:

Crashes With Animals
Collisions with animals, particularly deer, represent more than four
percent of all crashes in the United States and killed 111 people in
1995 according to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration's Fatal Accident Reporting System (FARS), so the
Foundation decided to look into this issue further. An analysis of
state data from Alabama showed that the most dangerous times of day
for deer-related crashes are in the early evening and early morning --
the most active time for deer. The most dangerous time of year is
during the mating season, in November and December. While FARS
reported 275,000 collisions with animals in 1995, the Insurance
Information Institute , a New York based group that looks into various
insurance-related issues, estimates that there are 500,000 collisions
each year with deer alone, each costing the insurance industry
approximately $2,000 per claim. According to the I.I.I., the deer
population has swelled from approximately 10 million in the 1980s to
more than 20 million today.
So, what can you do to avoid hitting an animal yourself? First, pay
attention to animal crossing signs. They're probably there because
other motorists have had crashes in the area. Also, obey the speed
limit and keep a close watch for deer around dusk and at dawn. Don't
over-drive your headlights at night -- i.e., control your speed so
that you will have time to react to something when it appears in your
headlights. If you see a deer in the road, honk your horn -- flashing
your lights might cause the animal to further fixate on your vehicle.
Keep in mind that if you think you are going to hit the animal, it's
often better to brake than to swerve. Swerving can confuse the animal
as to which way to run and possibly result in a worse collision with a
fixed object such as a tree or an oncoming vehicle.
Are morel mushrooms and deer antler mushrooms the same?
Morel Mushrooms and Deer Antler are not the same. Deer antler mushrooms are mushrooms carved from deer antlers. Morel Mushrooms are a form of an edible mushroom.
Unlikely, unless the deer is wounded. Rat poison is an anticoagulant, and can only kill if the animal begins bleeding due to cuts or other injuries.
Rat poison works on rats because they fight frequently and once injured the poison causes them to uncontrollably bleed to death.
How long do you bake deer sausage?
If you set your oven to 280 degrees, you need to cook it for 4 hours. If you set your oven to 140 degrees, you need to cook it for 8 hours.
In Deer Isle ME why do they call one section The Reach?
"The Reach" refers to Eggemoggin Reach which is the section of water that separates the island of Deer Isle from the Maine mainland. There is a narrow suspension bridge, built in the 1930's I believe, that crosses this section of water. This bridge is the only way to get to the island by car. - brian

Only if their mother provides it for them- they would too young to prey upon it for themselves.
What is the fastest deer like animal in the world?
The pronghorn (antelocapridae) is unrelated to deer but is deer like in appearance and has a top speed of 55 mph. Somewhat less deer like is the Springbok and antelope that can reach speeds of 62 mph.
How can you build an electronic controlled timer for a deer feeder?
The easiest approach is to use a 555 timer. See the related links to learn all about the 555. Then build one of their circuits, and adjust the two resistor values (connected to pins 6 and 7, and then 7 to 8.) and adjust the capacitor until you get the timing you want. The ratio of the resistor values is the ratio the output will be high then low. This is called the "Duty Cycle". In your case, you want to generally have a 9:1 ratio, because you want to detect when a certain amount of time has passed. So one resistor value must be 9 times the other one. To calculate the approximate waiting time, just take the larger resistor value and multiply it by the capacitor value. To calculate the approximate "active time", take the lower resistor value and multiply it by the capacitor value. "active time" occurs when the desired amount of time is over. This "active time" period lasts for a short while then the process starts all over again. To sum up, Experimenting with the 555 timer is your best answer. It depends on the resources available and the extent of control desired, acceptable cost, whether or not solar panels or other power sources are available, etc. Option 1. Analog approach, based on timer ICs such as the venerable 555. Advantages: simple circuits. Disadvantages: long delay times between feedings require expensive components for acceptable accuracy, temperature swings can drastically affect timing. Option 2. Analog approach with sensors, using a light sensor to detect dawn/dusk and one-shots to time feed dispensing. Advantages: more appropriate operation times. Disadvantages: circuit complexity and sensor placement, possibility of false triggers (clouds, trees, or animals affecting sensors). Option 3. Analog plus digital approach, based on a timer IC or crystal oscillator and digital dividers. Advantages: better timer accuracy. Disadvantages: circuit complexity. Option 4. All-digital approach, based on microcontroller with crystal oscillator. Advantages: better timer accuracy, fully programmable feeding times and dispensing. Disadvantages: circuit complexity, programming required. Option 5. CPU approach, based on industrial computer with cellular modem interface, possibly with camera(s). Advantages: remotely user-controlled, monitorable. Disadvantages: circuit complexity, power requirements, geekiness. By all means use the lm555 timer plenty of design ideas on the Internet The only variation i will add to the timer is a trigger where by it will begin timing as the deer approach the feeder. The time for the feed can then set by you as desired time. just one lm555 will do it. or install a computer camera and what not to replace it. If you listen to these fellows first thing you know you are using a $300 a computer power supplies and what not. The sign of a good engineer is the guy that solve problems as efficiently as possible. A $ 5.00 ac mechanical timer good for 24 hour provide ac output to an electrical device to open or close a flap. run an ac motor your choice.
If you mean why they are so popular to hunt in North America then it is because the hunting license for the whitetail and mule if fairly cheap, and both are highly populated, also along with that rifles suitable for deer generally have low recoil.
Example:
#1:30-30 Winchester 150 grn 2390 fps 1902 ft lbs of energy 7.5 lb rifle 10.5 lbs of recoil.
#2 30-06 Springfield 150 grn 2800 fps 2610 ft lbs of energy 8.5 lb rifle 20.1 lbs of recoil
Yes deer are animals and yes they eat.
However, they eat plants (- they ARE herbivores) not animals (- they ARE NOT carnivores).
Is an antelope a deer or a goat?
The antelope is more closely related to the goat, both being of the family bovidae, whereas the deer is of the family cervidae.
Many deer live in meadows, grasslands, and forests, but may also be found in mountainous regions. As human habitation enters these wilderness areas, deer are being found in suburban woods and parklands.
Deer are found in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia and have been transplanted to many other areas of the Earth by man. There are also species of deer adapted to most climatic and ecological conditions, from swamps, forests, and savannas to arid deserts and Arctic tundra.
Where they are found, deer may be very numerous but most will shy away from human contact. Deer are adept at blending into their environment.
The thing is that no one knows if animals go to heaven. Maybe they do but maybe they don't. I guess there would be animals but on the other hand why would we need them in heaven? We need them in Earth but maybe not beyond. Sorry but no one can answer that question.
Why did the seminole use deer hide leggings?
They used it for hunting incase they got bit by an animal.Also because deerskin is tough
