True to its name, the red deer is crimson in color and resembles its
relatives. Deer are the only mammals to grow antlers. Males use their antlers to
compete with other males during breeding season. Also, during this time, red
deer males grow a mane around their neck. This mane is made up of thick fur and
makes the red buck look more intimidating.
Fun Facts: Red deer antlers grow one inch per day.
