The Key Deer is a small subspecies of the White-tailed Deer found only in the Florida Keys. Adult Key Deer typically weigh between 50 to 75 pounds and stand about 30 inches tall at the shoulder. They have a light brown coat and are known for their short legs and small size, which help them navigate their unique habitat. Key Deer primarily inhabit coastal wetlands, mangroves, and hardwood forests. They are herbivores, feeding on a variety of plants, including grasses and shrubs. Due to habitat loss and hunting, Key Deer are classified as an endangered species, with conservation efforts in place to protect their population.
