Eastern Roe Deer

Also known as Siberian Roe Deer, Asian Roe Deer

Larger than their European relatives, Eastern roe deer bound gracefully through northern Asian forests and mountain slopes, using deep bark-like vocalizations to signal danger to their herd. Males sprout large, heavily knobbed antlers each spring and rub them against saplings to mark breeding territories. Their coats shift dynamically with the seasons, transitioning from a rich reddish-brown in summer to a dense greyish coat for insulation during Siberian winters.
