  • A bold female Columbian black-tailed deer feeds on the wild grasses growing along Hurricane Ridge in Washington's Olympic Mountains. This subspecies of the mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) is found only in the coastal temperate rainforests and mountains of the Pacific Northwest from Northern California to Washington.
    Columbian Black-tailed Doe
  • A young male Columbian black-tailed deer feeds on the mountain grasses and forbs in a subalpine meadow on Hurricane Ridge in Washington's Olympic Mountains.
    Columbian Black-tailed Buck
  • A young male Columbian black-tailed deer feeds on the foliage below Hurricane Ridge in Washington's Olympic Mountains. This subspecies of the mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) is found only in the coastal temperate rainforests and mountains of the Pacific Northwest from Northern California to Washington.
    Columbian Black-tailed deer Young Buck
  • An adorable Columbian black-tailed fawn stays close to its mother on an chilly fall afternoon just below Hurricane Ridge on Washington's Olympic Peninsula.
    Columbian Black-tailed Fawn
  • This young mule deer (also called a black-tailed deer) might have lost its baby spots, but it still has a lot of growing to do. This was seen toward the base of Mount Rainier, in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
    Mule Deer Fawn
  • This buck clearly saw me on one of the meadows of Hurricane Ridge on Washington's Olympic Peninsula, yet from a distance behaved quite calmly and after some time I was able to get this beautifully serene shot.
    Mule Deer Buck
  • This white-tailed deer was apparently used to people as it let me get this close to it just outside of Tallahassee on the Florida Panhandle. Extremely common all over the United States and Canada, its range extends from the Atlantic Ocean and west all the way to the Rocky Mountains (fantastic natural barrier), where its cousin - the black-tailed deer completes the range all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Somehow the white-tailed deer has nearly made it to the Pacific Ocean in Canada, and has a strong toehold in all of Central American and the northern part of South America. This is a huge native range for an ungulate (deer, elk, moose family) and it has been introduced in many other parts of the word such and the Caribbean Islands, Europe and even New Zealand.
    White-tailed Deer
  • Largest and heaviest of our native North American deer, moose are rapidly declining in numbers due to a number of factors other than habitat loss. Increasing numbers of white-tail and black-tail deer due to predator decline are introducing new parasitic diseases such as brainworm and liver fluke into already stressed populations of adult breeding moose. This cow was seen foraging in a pond near the Idaho-Wyoming border near Jackson Hole.
