Deercember Day Seven: European Roe Deer | Fairy Festival

The European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), also known as the Western roe or simply roe, is widespread in Europe, ranging from Scotland to the Caucasus, the Mediterranean to Scandinavia, and as far East as Iran. Roe deer populations—combining European and Siberian species—gradually become somewhat larger as one moves further to the East, peaking in Kazakhstan, then becoming smaller again towards the Pacific Ocean. In order to mitigate risk, roe deer remain within refuge habitats (such as forests) during the day. They are likelier to venture into more open habitats at night and during crepuscular periods when there is less ambient activity. Roe deer will generally not venture into a field that has or has had livestock in it. More information here.
