My family came across this doe on the side of the road waiting for the cars to move on so that she could join her partner who had already braved the crossing. Description: These animals are mostly brown with a white underbelly and tail. The fauns are speckled white across the back. Males have antlers, which the females lack. Habitat: These deer are native to North America along with many other countries, and are most common east of the Rocky Mountains. They are often spotted in woodsy areas or grassy plains. Diet: These deer eat grasses, shoots, leaves, legumes, and other plants. If the desperate need rises, white-tailed deer have been known to feed on nesting songbirds, mice, and other small animals, but they prefer to remain herbivorous. Lifecycle: Females give birth to around three spotted young in mid spring. Fawns stay alone in the grass while their mother gets food for them for around a month, and then they tag along on these trips for up to two years.
