{Roe} Deer

        Woven Of Various Grasses.

         Looking At The Viewer.]          
                                          
                                     
                               
                                     
                                          
 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.
