They’re so beautiful but people don’t look at them really when they’re used to them, I guess. But just watch the way deer move. They’re incredible.

Also fawns are cute.

I will make this random opinion post ‘educational’ by adding that deer are ungulates, and that only female reindeer keep their antlers in the winter. This last point may depend on the species of reindeer though, I’m not sure.

On a not really related note, how tf do bighorn sheep and/or goats balance so confidently when they climb cliffsides. I will have to google this later.

    I appreciate them from afar as just a general animal lover, but I also live in an area where they are severely over populated and will casually hop on the busiest interstate in Ohio. It’s so dangerous. Also I wish the MFs would quit eating my poppies and tulips and hostas.
