Description

This mount features a Whitetail Deer (Odocoileus virginianus), one of the most iconic and widely distributed deer species in North America. Known for its agility, alert nature, and distinctive white tail used as a warning signal, this deer is a favorite among hunters, wildlife enthusiasts, and collectors.
