Sawsbuck (SciiFii)

Not to be confused with the Sawbuck (Secoceragazella africanus), an antelope native to Africa. The sawsbuck (Neorangifer borealis), also known as the southern reindeer, the southern caribou, and, inaccurately, the American sawbuck and simply the sawbuck, is a species of deer, most closely related to the reindeer (Rangifer tarandus), that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, and shrublands across southern Canada and throughout the United States, along with Eurasia, to help boost biodiversity. The sawsbuck is a large deer, with a shoulder height of 1.6 meters (5.2 feet) and a weight of usually around 92.5 kilograms (203 lbs). The sawsbuck is predominantly brown in color, having darker hooves and the inner part of the ears of the same color, the branched antlers are usually brown, which are larger in males. The sawsbuck also has a small tail, while the hair of the muzzle, neck and belly is straw yellow with edges tending to orange, it also has black eyes, dark brown nose and spots on its back. During the spring, the lower part of the legs are straw yellow and have the fur of the thickest neck, the spots of the back instead have a pinkish color. The sawbucks are herbivorous like other deer, and they primarily feed on grasses, shrubs, leaves, pine needles, roots, shoots, tubers, bulbs, fruits, and vegetables. Sawsbucks usually live in herds, they are headed by the male who during the spring decorates the horns with the most beautiful flowers. Although they do not have many differences in characteristics, they have a totally unique behavior, in fact both male and female sawsbucks tend to collect leaf branches during the summer and autumn in order to attract the mate or companion, during these periods it is almost impossible to see sawsbucks with bare antlers, during the winter instead the antlers are not decorated due to the little amount of vegetation. The conservation status of the sawsbuck is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the sawsbuck's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
