Jean, The key words here are: mammals of the SAME SPECIES. Those deer (Dama dama) are a different species than the North American Whitetail (Odocoileus virginianus). However, if these European deer have relatives in the southern part of Europe (I don't know) they generally should be smaller yet. Steve White, Waterloo, Nebraska USA
