This exciting book by renowned wildlife photographer Dave Taylor features 375 images of North American deer species in their natural habitat. Included are the two deer species indigenous to North America -- the whitetail and the mule deer -- as well as blacktail deer, elk, caribou and moose. These majestic animals are photographed at all stages of development, in all seasons, in locations across the continent.

The remarkable photographs are arranged by day and month, juxtaposed with informative captions that offer notes on the animal, its behavior, the role it plays within its local ecosystem, and where and when it can best be viewed.
As a bonus, Taylor includes photographs of other animals found in the deer's world, such as wolves and bears.
