Happy #KeyDeer Awareness Day!
These guys are VERY small and becoming endangered due to habitat loss from rising seas and forced close contact with humans.

The tiny Key Deer are an endangered sub-species of white-tailed deer. A large adult only reaches 30 inches (76 cm) at the shoulder. There are only about 700 left, living in the Middle Keys centered around Big Pine Key in Florida. Saw 2 today in the National Key Deer Refuge.

Due to the blizzard in Wisconsin our flight home was canceled, along with every flight going north. So 24 stressful hours spent trying to rebook a way home. Couldn't even get a car to drive home. Trying to relax by watching videos of my walk thru National Key Deer Refuge a few days ago.

Our Sun-Sentinel version was three spinning wheels to create a subdivision name after Roadkill Animal / Removed Tree / Wind.
Better if it was random, ex: "KeyDeer Kapok Breezes Phase 2"

Key deer were once poached almost to extinction and in 1967 were put on the endangered species list, where they remain today. The population has somewhat stabilized, with an estimated 700 to 800 individuals currently thriving in the Lower Keys. The threat of extinction continues.

One of 5 Key Deer I saw during my visit to the Florida Keys. This small subspecies of the White-tailed Deer is threatened by habitat loss and collisions with cars. About the size of a Golden Retriever, and are adorable. #keydeer #odocoileusvirginianusclavium #mammals #wildlife #floridakeys

How do you “conserve” species by booting them off the endangered list, kicking them down the protection ladder to “threatened,” or never letting them on the list in the first place? #Florida #environment #keydeer

Drive to delist Florida’s diminutive Key deer was pushed by feds’ wacky ‘WIG’ plan • Florida Phoenix
Have you ever seen a Key deer? They’re like a regular white-tail deer but scaled down to the size of a big dog. It’s as if someone crossed Bambi with Marmaduke. I saw one for the first time in 2017 while driving through the Keys. This was a few months after Hurricane Irma plowed through […]
