*** About Key Deer: Key Deer are a unique species of deer native to the Florida Keys, distinguished by their small size compared to other North American deer. Adults often weigh between 55 to 75 pounds, making them notably smaller and more delicate. They inhabit a range of habitats but are particularly adapted to the low elevation forested areas, feasting on over 150 types of plants and showing a particular fondness for red mangrove, thatch palm berries, and acorns. Classified as an endangered species, Key Deer populations have faced challenges due to habitat loss, road kills, and environmental changes. Conservation efforts are critical in preserving these gentle creatures and their environment, ensuring they continue to thrive in their native habitats.
