Where do deer sleep?
(from http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/7990)
● “At a Days Inn if the Hilton is full.”
● “actually, deer are arboreal. they create nests
high up in the trees from scraps of their prey. ie:
squirrels, cats, etc.. also, deer are known for
their brachiation abilities. their main method of
locomotion through the trees is vertical
swinging and leaping.”
