I see plenty of sign which, to me, looks relatively fresh. I have seen a couple deer but they’re always on the wrong side of the fence so I figure I must be in the right ish places. Questions are as follows

    Do deer hang out at different altitudes at different times of year?

    What is the range of deer generally? Ie. if I see fresh sign they can’t be that far away?

    Do they move around a lot during the day or do they tend to stay in the same spot?

    I’ve googled a bit about deer behaviour etc but I’ve not really found much. Any answers or links to info would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Deer on the "wrong side of the fence" hardly puts you in the "right place" if they are farmed deer...unless you are looking for "escapees"
