EXAMPLE:
In Sept. 1962, 6 bucks and 9 does were released on S. Fox Island in Lake Michigan. In 1970, 382 deer were shot by hunters.

- In favorable areas, most does will have twins

- In good food areas, more than half of the fawns will breed at 7 to 8 months.

- Usually does breed when 1.5 years old.

Deer have an acute sense of smell, keen hearing and eyes that are especially good at detecting movement. However, they are color blind.
