Deer (singular and plural) are the ruminant mammals forming the family Cervidae. Species in the Cervidae family include white-tailed deer, mule deer such as black-tailed deer, elk, moose, red deer, reindeer (caribou), fallow deer, roe deer and chital. Male deer of all species (except the Chinese water deer) and also female reindeer grow and shed new antlers each year. In this they differ from permanently horned animals such as antelope; these are in the same order as deer and may bear a superficial resemblance. The musk deer of Asia and water chevrotain (or mouse deer) of tropical African and Asian forests are not usually regarded as true deer and form their own families, Moschidae and Tragulidae, respectively.

What science says
nutrition finding
“In well-fed hinds, peak yields of 1400 to 2000 g/day were reached early in lactation. One hind on a restricted food intake gave a maximum of 970 g/day”
“Deer can be colonized by E coli O157:H7 and can be a source of human infections.”
E. coli O157:H7→ was not detected →310 fresh deer fecal samples
“E. coli O157 was not detected in 310 fresh deer fecal samples collected from the ground.”
E. coli O157:H7→ was not detected →140 deer
“In 1998, E. coli O157 was not detected in 140 deer at the single positive site found in 1997.”
E. coli O157:H7→ was detected →3 of 469 free-ranging deer
“It was detected in feces, but not in meat, from 3 of 469 free-ranging deer in 1997.”
Escherichia coli O157:H7→ is present in →white-tailed deer
“Results of our study suggest that the design of programs for E coli O157:H7 control in domestic livestock on pasture will need to account for fecal shedding in free-ranging deer.”
