The Hidden Life of Deer

Author Elizabeth Marshall Thomas spent the better part of a year observing deer outside her Peterborough home. She learned these creatures are a lot more than “potential venison”, but complicated animals with communities, social hierarchies and intricate patterns of eating, communicating, and finding places to rest. We look at deer, from the whitetails in our own backyards to their close relatives, moose, elk and caribou.
