.&.&.&..&. 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 &.&.&.&.&&

.&.&.&..&. SWEET-SMELLING NOSE, LIKE HONEY. &.&.&.&.&&

.&.&.&.&&. 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 &.&.&.&.&&

.&.&.&..&. AGE THE SECRETS WILL HARDEN INTO A &.&.&.&.&&
.&.&.&.&&. CARAMELLIZED STRUCTURE, WHICH WILL &.&.&.&..&
.&.&.&..&. EVENTUALLY BLOCK THE FLOW OF BLOOD, AND &.&.&.&.&&
.&.&.&.&&. KILL THE DEER. &.&.&.&..&
