Player notes
The Buck is a male White-tailed deer, Odocoileus virginianus. It has a generally brown coat, long thin legs and a short tail.
Bucks live across the world everywhere except Grizzlies West. They are easily startled and run quickly, although they are comparatively easy to bring down among deer. Their movement makes vital shots harder once they are fleeing.
The animal provides Buck Fur, Buck Antlers, Mature Venison and a Buck Carcass. Its meat can be eaten, while its hide, antlers and meat can be sold to a butcher.
