The UGA Deer Lab has studied deer visual capabilities for decades. The eyes of white-tailed deer are specialized for function in a variety of habitats and lighting conditions. Because of the wide-set placement of their eyes, the shape of their pupil, and the arrangement of cone cells in their retina, deer have an enhanced ability to monitor a broad area. The reflective structure on the back of their retina, the tapetum lucidum, improves visual sensitivity of deer in low-light conditions and improves the contrast of scenes during daylight. Deer have excellent short-wavelength color perception including blues and ultraviolet light. Their vision is well tuned to green and brown tones similar to the colors of many of the habitats deer occupy. However, because they lack long-wavelength cones, deer have less sensitivity to oranges and reds as compared to humans. As a prey species, deer must navigate complex environments on the run and identify the rapid approach of predators, and the deer visual system has the ability to sense changes in light (i.e. movement) even better than humans. We continue to improve our understanding of deer vision and work to use our findings to improve management of deer and deer-human interactions.
