Happy #keydeerawarenessday! The Key Deer is a beautiful little species of deer that just live in the Florida Keyes. They are about half the star of the common White Tailed Deer and there are only around 800 of them left, making them an endangered species. #keydeer #deer

It's #KeyDeerAwarenessDay - Key Deer live only in the Florida Keys. ⚠️They're endangered, with a population of just 700-800. 🦌
They have a refuge to help protect them, which they share with 23 other #endangered and threatened plant and animal species! 🌿

This Key deer tagged along on some plant demography surveys today. Cute but problematic behavior that happens when people feed them. Don't feed wildlife! #KeyDeer #BigPineKey
