Whitetail deer are known for their ability to move silently through the woods, making them hard to spot even in close proximity.

When startled, a whitetail deer will raise its white tail and flick it, often signaling alarm to others in the area.

Deer have an excellent sense of vision, particularly for detecting motion, so they can spot you from a distance.

If threatened, a whitetail deer can sprint at impressive speeds, reaching up to 30 miles per hour in short bursts.

In calm situations, whitetail deer tend to be gentle and curious, carefully observing their surroundings without rushing.

While they have an excellent sense of smell, whitetail deer can often move through an area without you noticing their scent.

Whitetail deer are crepuscular animals, meaning they are most active during the early morning hours and late evening.
