Alaska Black Tail Deer Hunting Guides and Outfitters

Black Tail Deer: The deer family has about forty species and seventeen genera, in which the black tail deer is included. These deer families cover all of Central America, South America, and North America, Asia, North Africa, and most of the countries in Europe, but most of the blacktail deer is located in North America. These areas are Alaska, Hawaii, and Oregon in the United States and British Columbia in Canada. Woodland areas, meadows, and fields are excellent locations for an Alaska black tail deer hunting guide or outfitter to find this big game.

The deer family have a wide range of sizes and cover the moose or elk that can reach seven feet high at the shoulders to middle size like the Alaska black tail deer, then down to something as small as the pudu, which is on thirteen inches high at its shoulders and lives in South America.

Black tail deer are as most deer with strong legs for running and good color of their hide for camouflage against not only its natural enemies as bear, wolfs, and cougars, but Alaska hunting guides and outfitters trying to find this big game while on a trip or guided hunt. The colors allow this game animal to blend in with its surrounds such as dense wooded forest or light colors, which are in open fields.

The Alaska black tail deer eats plant leafs and fruit, which can be found on low growing bushes or trees. The blacktail deer’s internal bodies have no gallbladder but do have a liver. This big game animal has a stomach which has 4 chambers inside of it to process the food it intakes during the day. Their teeth are very well made for grinding plant leafs and fruit down to be processed. Many guided hunts have found the remains of areas that the black tail deer were feeding at before being startled off by other animals or hunters on a deer hunting trip.

The black tail deer has antlers as most deer do. They can be very large in size and are the prize of any Alaska outfitter or guide on a hunting trip. There was an ancestor of this big game called the Megaloceros, which antlers were over 10 feet wide. Can you just imagine what it would be like for a hunter to go out on an Alaska hunting trip and come back with a set of antlers like that to hang on his living-room wall. Well let’s face it, his wife wouldn’t like it, but I suspect that the hunter would get to hand it, though maybe in his study and not in the living-room. LOL. Hunting-Trips-R-Us would love to show such a pair of antlers, if someone happens to come across a picture of some this big.
