blacktail
Pacific coast deer
Blacktail is a deer native to the Pacific Coast of North America, distinguished by its dark-tipped tail.
Closely related to mule deer, blacktails inhabit forests from California to Alaska: We spotted a blacktail buck in the old-growth timber.
The term also refers to various fish species with dark tail markings.
