Deer are herding herbivorous animals that are found in temperate forests, temperate swamps, boreal forests, and cold bogs. Males of the species are called Bucks and can be distinguished by the presense of antlers and larger visual size, while females are called Does and are visually smaller and lack antlers. Young deer of both genders are light colored and spotted. Despite the visual differences, adult deer of both genders have the same stats and attacks.

Summary

Deer are pen animals. Once tamed, pen animals cannot and do not need to be trained any further. But if left outside of a pen or caravan hitching spot, pen animals will eventually roam outside your colony. Making a caravan is not required to tie animals to a caravan hitching spot.

Analysis

Other than being an animal to be hunted, deer don't have much of a purpose.

Ibex are more efficient ranch animals, are easier to tame, and they can be found in all biomes that deer populate. Deer are better to hunt than ibex, as deer are larger targets (which won't revenge when hunted).

Nutrition

When slaughtered, a deer yields 35 meat and 17 leather as a baby; 84 meat and 28 as a juvenile; or 168 meat and 48 leather as an adult. 1 meat is equal to 0.05 nutrition.

An adult deer consumes 0.32 nutrition per day, and a doe creates up to 0.18 offspring per day.

  • When offspring are slaughtered as babies, a doe will produce 0.31 nutrition of meat per day, giving an optimal nutrition efficiency of 96.6%.
  • If the offspring are allowed to grow to adulthood, they will consume an additional 0.73 nutrition per day, but will instead yield 1.48 nutrition per day as they are slaughtered, resulting in an optimal nutrition efficiency of 141.4%.

When considering a population of equal numbers of males and females, these nutrition efficiencies fall to 48.3% for baby slaughter and 108.4% for adult slaughter.

As mentioned above, ibex, as well as horses, are superior for nutrition. Horses are also pack animals which can also be ridden on caravans.

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.
