A very fluffy deer visited one of our sites in the forest this week! In freezing temps, deer can raise their winter guard hairs to trap an insulating layer of air between their hair and skin. This can keep them nice and toasty up to -30 degrees Fahrenheit. This deer spent a lot of time cruising around the trees, foraging in the surrounding vegetation before joining back up with mom (seen behind the tree on the right).
