antlers, often much branched, which are shed annually.
Their flesh, for which they are hunted, is called
venison.

also stag or red deer; the fallow deer is {Cervus
dama}; the common American deer is {Cervus
Virginianus}; the blacktailed deer of Western North
America is Cervus Columbianus; and the mule deer of
the same region is Cervus macrotis. See Axis,
Fallow deer, Mule deer, Reindeer.

Note: Deer is much used adjectively, or as the first part of
a compound; as, deerkiller, deerslayer, deerslaying,
deer hunting, deer stealing, deerlike, etc.

leisure for the chase of such small deer." --G. P. Marsh.
