Product Description

With a seasonally changing coat from gray brown to red brown, this deer can always be spotted by its white tail.

White-tailed deer spend their mornings and evenings grazing for food. They're herbivores, so they eat green plants and nuts. Deer live in small groups -- usually just a mother and her fawns. Males, called bucks, have magnificent antlers and live in small groups of three or four. Both male and female deer are red brown in summer and gray brown in winter. Since none of their predators are still around, deer populations sometimes grow so big that there's not enough food for them to eat. Deer are ruminants, like cattle. This means they have four stomachs and chew on semi-digested food, called cud. This complicated process allows deer to eat things like twigs that most animals can't digest.

Fun Facts: The white-tailed deer is the state animal for nine states in America and the provincial animal for two provinces in Canada

4.0 out of 5 stars male deer toy, January 1, 2011

Schleich usually does a wonderful job of its animals, however this White Tailed Buck Deer toy lacks the detail that most other Schleich animals have. When I look at it, I just see a toy. With their zebras, for example, I am happy to keep them on a shelf in the living room because they are so realistic they look like works of art, as if real zebras were there in miniature. I'm just a little disappointed with the buck. Still, it's not like I see 'errors'; it just lacks the same finesse.

This item was exactly what I was looking for. Doing a hunting scene on the groom's cake at my wedding and was looking for something realistic. This was perfect! Not too big, but not tiny either. Very realistic. Can't really say anything as far as, "fun" or "played with it". But for what I needed, it was perfect.
