Information
European Roe Deer are found in Europe, Asia and the Caspian Sea region. In our country the Roe deer is a common species, the most specimens can be found in the western part of Poland. Most often they live in flatlands and mountains, very fond of staying in not too dense forests and meadows.
The body weight of adult specimens can range from 20 to even 45 kilograms. The discrepancy is considerable, because everything depends on whether it is a female or a male. Deer live on average from 6 to 10 years, so for the age of the animals is not a long period.
The European species lives from the beginning of spring until late autumn in flocks consisting mainly of several individuals, which is led by an experienced female. After this period, i.e., one can say that more than half of the year they disperse and form smaller groups consisting of only a few individuals.
They are more active in the morning and in the evening. Their menu does not include many delicacies, because they mainly feed on grass, leaves and forest fruits.
Trivia
- Seasonal migrations: Deer, like many other wildlife species, undergo seasonal migrations, moving to different areas depending on the season. In summer, deer can often be found in meadows and fields where they have access to fresh plants, while in winter they prefer wooded areas that offer shelter from bad weather.
- Diversified Food: The diet of deer is very diverse and includes leaves, flowers, fruits, plant shoots and grass.
- Speed: Deer are extremely fast and agile. They can reach speeds of up to 48 kilometers per hour, and can make jumps of up to 10 meters.
- Change in coloration: The deer's coat changes color depending on the season: in summer it is reddish brown, and in winter it is grayish or grayish-brown, which helps them to camouflage themselves in different environments.
- Warnings: Deer communicate with each other using a variety of signals, including fanning tail movements that serve as a warning of danger.
- Loneliness: Deer are generally solitary animals, although juveniles often stay with their mother until they are one year old. During the mating season, males may form small groups.
- Rut: The mating season of deer is called rutting or rutting. Rutting begins in October and lasts until November. During this time, males are very aggressive and compete with each other for control of territory and females.
- Sniff: Deer have a highly developed sense of smell, which is their main tool for detecting predators.
- Nightlife: Deer are crepuscular animals, meaning that they are most active at dawn and dusk.
- Long life: Deer can live up to 10-12 years in the wild, although many individuals do not live to that age due to predator pressure and other wildlife factors.
