Black-tailed deer (Odocoileous hemionnus columbianus)


 

 

Identification: They stand three feet high at shoulder, and weight about 65 to 150 pounds. They are uniformly light-tan to rusty brown color all over with a black tipped tail. The adult males grow a set of branched antlers each year. Each winter these are shed and then grown anew, and a little larger the following year, until old age when they decrease in size in size. Habitat: The black-tail deer are found on the west side of the Cascade Mountain crest from California to Alaska.

Each year biologists track deer population trends through harvest and hunter effort (state and tribal). They modify tribal regulations to take into account new data so that populations are protected.
