Definition
- Members of the Cervidae family, deer are ruminant animals—meaning they are hooved and digest their food through a process of rumination on regurgitated cud; and possessing antlers, rather than horns. Indigenous to most of the world, some of the more than 30 species of deer can be found on every continent. [Source: Encyclopedia of Environment and Society; Deer]
