Deer are vegetarians, and they feed mostly on plants. Deer eat different things depending on what season it is.

Although they are traditionally thought of as a woodland species, deer can exist in many habitats and are ideally suited to exploiting "edge" habitat. Edges are created where a natural or human-made habitat break occurs, such as from woods to croplands, or from woods to marsh.
