Beemerville, New Jersey, USA

Sika deer: stag and hind. They are overabundant in Japan (sika means 'deer' in Japanese) but almost gone from Korea. In the U.S., they thrive on Virginia's Assateague Island (and the nearby Eastern Shore) where they were introduced in the 1920s. Want to see one in captivity? Try Space Farms in northern Jersey. Stag and hind? Guess what: They are really elk! [2018]
