White-tailed Deer

Description:

There is much difference in size with all the subspecies of this deer, but these were really big, easily over 100#. They were grayish brown with white on the underside, upper throat and chin and the fashionable white rump and underside of the tail.

Habitat:

Quite common in the flats of Montana, during the few days we were there I saw no less than 12 in 3 different groups come through the wide open, unfenced property.

Notes:

Nice big animals, but had to watch from a distance as they were really edgy, moving slowly off at the slightest movement.
