Blacktailed Buck
The deer at Olympic National park are probably the most tame "wild" animals I've ever seen... they aren't quite as aggressive as the deer at Nara, where they are fed by tourists, but they will walk right up to you. This lovely, healthy looking buck was accompanied by a yearling buck and a doe. They were browsing a few yards away from us and a large group tourists on a ranger led walk.

The Columbian black-tailed deer is found in western North America, from Northern California into the Pacific Northwest and coastal British Columbia. The Sitka deer is found coastally in British Columbia, Southeast Alaska and Southcentral Alaska.
