Red Deer, Native to
Europe, is a large deer with a reddish-brown coarse coat. There is a faint
dorsal stripe and a pale, yellowish rump patch that encloses a short tail. The
mature stags grow antlers that are large and heavy, with at least five points to
a side, including the tip of the main beam. Typically, the first (brow) and
second tines grow close together and are well separated from the third tine. The
other tines are usually in a group near the beam tip, commonly forming a crown.
