Two deer are fighting

Fallow deer

A herd animal with an overview

  1. You can recognize the fallow deer by its rump/mirror. It is white, surrounded by two black stripes and with a black tail, making it look like there's 111 on its rump.

  2. Deer can see in all directions, except directly behind them. This is due to the placement of their eyes in their head.

  3. Deer live together in several herds, also called packs.

  4. Deer come in several colors – including white, black, dark, and the common light brown. In the summer, they have spots in their fur to better camouflage themselves.

Be lucky to encounter the fallow deer on Skovridersletten.
