*** About Key Deer: The Key Deer is a diminutive species of deer unique to the Florida Keys. Smaller than most of their counterparts, adult Key Deer stand just about 30 inches at the shoulder and are adapted to life in the low-lying forested areas of the Keys. This species, Odocoileus virginianus clavium, is particularly noted for its resilience and adaptability, having survived the brink of extinction in the past century. Conservation efforts have been pivotal in the recovery of their population, with particular emphasis on managing habitats and reducing roadkill. The Key Deer continues to be a symbol of the delicate balance between human activity and wildlife conservation in Florida.
