Real-Life Red:
The Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) is one of the largest deer species and is native to Europe, parts of Asia, and North America. Known for their impressive size and majestic antlers, male red deer, also called stags, can weigh between 300 to 500 pounds and stand over 4 feet at the shoulder. Their reddish-brown coats are especially vibrant in the summer but become grayer in winter. Red deer are primarily herbivorous, grazing on grasses, leaves, and shrubs, and are often found in forests, grasslands, and mountainous regions. Social animals, they form herds, typically led by a dominant male during the mating season, known as the rut, when stags compete for females by engaging in displays of strength and vocalizations. Red deer play a significant ecological role, contributing to their habitats through grazing, which helps maintain vegetation balance. While they are not currently considered endangered, habitat loss and hunting pressures impact their populations, highlighting the need for effective conservation measures to ensure their survival.
