¨#¨#¨#¨#¨# 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. ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
