#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# in the north, the deer is often used as ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# a symbol for the forest's agency, or ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# its self-knowledge. watching eyes. ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# warmer regions instead ascribe it the ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# knife (teeth, rumors of violence), or ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# obsession (unblinking eyes, always ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# awake, scrapie-like behavior). ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨

#¨#¨#¨##¨# the deer is a cross between a horse and ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# a dog. it bears a resemblance to a ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# young salix tree, and has a ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# sweet-smelling nose, like honey. ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# the horns of a deer is called antlers. ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# they have a complex fractal shape, and ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# are believed to enable the deer to ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# "fold" through passages which should be ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# too narrow for them. antlers from dead ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# deer seem to lose this power. ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# a deer's heart has two chambers, where ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# it stores all the secrets it might see ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# during the course of it's life. with ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# age the secrets will harden into a ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# caramellized structure, which will ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
#¨#¨#¨¨#¨# eventually block the flow of blood, and ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
#¨#¨#¨##¨# kill the deer. ##¨#¨#¨#¨¨
