*** About Key Deer: Key deer are a unique and endangered subspecies of white-tailed deer native to the Florida Keys. Smaller than their mainland counterparts, they are adapted to the low-lying scrub environment of the Keys. Females generally weigh between 25 to 35 kilograms, while males are slightly larger. Urbanization and vehicle collisions are major threats to their dwindling population, which is estimated to be between 700 to 800 individuals. Conservation efforts are vital for their survival, focusing on habitat protection and reducing human-induced mortality. The depiction of these delicate creatures in art raises awareness and embodies a gentle reminder of nature's vulnerability amidst human expansion.
