Hello. The white-tailed deer's scientific name is Odocoileus virginianus. Why not complete your spotting's naming by putting that into the Scientific name space? That way the PN database of spottings will mark yours as identified. Thanks

Also please don't forget to include the scientific (latin) name for your spotting so that it can be considered complete. Thanks! you can look it up on Wikipedia or Google it and then add that sight for a reference too. Have fun!

HI! Like your spotting. I removed it from the Signs of Wildlife Mission as that mission is only for spottings of the evidence of wildlife, not of the wildlife itself. Welcome to Project Noah and hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!
